Ha Ha. Lets see phonetically thats Maunt Roose Minnasoda. Nobody but us gets that O's can substitute virtually every other vowel. I'm from Oconomowoc..... Ha pronounce that.

I left Wisconsin when I joined the Navy at 17. Got my degree in Shipping Economics after and then started working for a Swedish ship owner. Moved me to Sweden, then Swedish ship owner merged with Norwegian ship owner and there your go. Married with children in Norway.

Meaning I-94 to Milwaukee and then across to Lake MIchigan by ferry. Or do you have to drive around the loooong way through crappy Gary, Indiana?

hmmm...maybe I am getting your town mixed up with another...I go straight across WIS on 21/22 to Oshkosh/Appleton, up through Green Bay and Marinette and then up lake Michigan to Esky.

Nope. I'm down (was down...have not lived there for 25 years) between Milwaukee and Madison. Actual town is Ashippun.....But only 50 people there so we always refer to the nearest metropolis......of 10,000.

But you probably go through near where I used to spend my summers and do allot of hunting. Black River Falls.

Go Packers......Hee hee

My brother in law taught High School in Black River Falls when he and my sis were dating :)

And as a native Minnesota girl, I am obliged to detest "The Pack" LoL! but that Aaron Rodgers (yum!) ...I'd wear the cheese on my head for that man! Haha! My guy is a huge Green Bay fan, most of "da UP" is- so this last Superbowl was fun with all the trash talk!
