The Mysterious Wisconsin Wonder Spot is going away. The local village of Lake Delton has bought it to demolish it and run a road where it stands.

While I don't know if it and other places, like the Oregon Vortex which I've visited before, are real phenomena or just optical illusions I think it's sad that a piece of American history is going away at all, but particularly for a road to be built. I enjoyed my happenstance visit to the Oregon Vortex years ago, and I'd be sad if they decided to pave over it, as I am every time we blindly destroy tokens of old America to continue modernizing. Are we capable of preserving our history as we move forward? Or are we doomed to continually lose it as we've done for centuries? I'm not against progress, quite the opposite, in fact. I just believe that we could probably go about it a little better sometimes.
