Information:
{Closed in 2002)
Take a former high school principal with a good sized yard. Give him some time and a lot of styrofoam, and here's what you get. A wonderland of architectural recreations that have actually survived their time in the great outdoors.
Paul uses the really stout stuff to start with, shapes it and cuts it and paints the details until it really does resemble the White House, a French castle, Monticello or the Taj Mahal. These aren't chintzy little knockoffs either. They're precise and consistent in scale, and they're MADE FROM STYROFOAM.
You can see that he's quite the builder, and as you share a seat in the golfcart with him, an amiable, outgoing Packer fan too.
