Chad Holmes dives into the rich historical tapestry of Wausau with Christine and Carl Martens, leaders of Friends of Marathon County Historic Landmarks. As they explore lesser-known architectural wonders, including the Dewey Wright House and Jim's Tap, they highlight the community's deep connection to history. Their 'What' posts on Facebook reveal hidden treasures, drawing significant public interest. Upcoming events include an architectural talk at the Marathon County Library and a gingerbread landmark showcase, promising to ignite local historical passion even during the chilly holiday season. Meanwhile, Packers fans anticipate a crucial Thanksgiving game against Detroit.
