Up Nort (pronouncing the ‘h’ is optional)...Ah yes. Up Nort (pronouncing the ‘h’ is optional). As I lived in Wisconsin for about 23 years, I have to comment. When talking about Up North one thing that you cannot omit is the Packers. Yes, the Packers. The Packer logo is everywhere and they are probably the most common topic of conversation and I assume it’s the same west of the boarder for the Vikings. Now I have been Up North plenty of times and while Jenni touched on this, I just want to re-iterate before there is a flooding of urbanites to the great wilderness that is Up North. Unless you consider getting drunk on Old Milwaukee on par with an Olympic Sport, you will be bored and will eventually get in trouble with either your spouse or the law. Or if you are lucky, both. In my experience there has been nothing in the form of entertainment Up North, other than drinking, or shooting stuff with a rifle, or shooting stuff with a rifle while drinking. And if you are not doing that you are most certainly either modifying your truck or driving around in your truck that undoubtedly has really really big tires - and the older the truck or more obscure the vehicle, the better. Ah Up North, even though it does not compare, I might have to go to the mountains this weekend and listen to some Alabama.<BR/><BR/>BrianAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
