The north is in my DNA. The area we are in is socially and community minded. Community dinners, events, resource pooling. Constant examples of wholesome offers on Front Porch Forum. Important state laws and political positions that matter to me. Loads of responsible gun owners that don’t make gun ownership their whole personality. Efforts to protect and preserve the land, landscape, beauty of the state. Crystal clear lakes you actually want to swim in. Town meetings. People will trade and barter. The visible milky way and stars. A handshake and reputation mean something. Incredible local consumables and food - syrup, breads, ciders, beer, restaurants. Authentic general stores! That accent. Jeezum crow!
