Probably a fan of the Green Bay Packers NFL team whose fans are known as cheeseheads since the Wisconsin dairy industry packs a lot of cheese, like the 5-year old cheddar we ordered a few weeks ago.

I was born in Wisconsin and Wisconsinites are sometimes refereed to as Cheeseheads. I added CO to the front to signify that I now live in Colorado.

I haven’t posted here in a bit. The new house has been time consuming.
We did have the opportunity to run over into Utah for a four day getaway.
It’s nice to have places like this relatively close.

There’s a restaurant right next to the Amtrak station in downtown Grand Junction called Puffer Belly. It has a train theme, but feels like a truck stop out of the 60’s or 70’s. You may be called sweetie or hon by your waitress.
They make homemade biscuits served with homemade raspberry jam and cinnamon rolls with a generous ball of butter. If you tell them it’s your first time in, you get a free cinnamon roll.
The food is good, but the cinnamon rolls will remain in your dreams forever.

Puffer Belly 'might' be a chain, I know I ate at two of them back in Ohio, both in old train stations, at Berea and Kent, Ohio.

Could be. The only one I have ever seen is in GJ. Places like this are getting harder to find.

Very much enjoyed your beautiful photos, Cheesehead. At the end of April I'll be heading out to GJ to attend a conference at the Cameo Shooting and Education Complex. It's my very first visit to CO and I'm stoked!
