I sent two 11 year olds, a 16 year old, and an 18 year old to play Conspiracy Theory. I was a little worried as it was an Advanced level and this was only their second time. The girls had a blast and were chatting and laughing about it the whole way home. Also, I left my wallet outside the store and Tactical Escape and Justin were super helpful in finding it for me! Great customer service!

I have been to this museum several times and always enjoyed the exhibits, many of which are interactive. You can place yourself in northwoods settings, a great place for selfies. Upon my last visit, I got to see their annual Standard Gauge Christmas Layout. The Museum sets this up every year. While it is open during much of December, Santa is there prior to the 25th. There is a Scavenger Hunt thar challenges visitors to find and check off various small details in the layout.

Infinity is one of our favorite places to visit when we are in town. We did the Valentines Day promotion that was going on and had a great time, our host Justin was very knowledgeable on all the wines and spirits we sample. If you like wine I would highly recommend stopping in for a sample.

Such a great store, even if you just go in to look. So many colors and textures, smells. I did find a treasure to take home, a very cute, colorful birdhouse, It is very unique and I can hardly wait for Spring to come and find a special place to hang it! I plan on making another visit soon. So many talented people sharing their art. The employees were very friendly and helpful.
