David not sure if you will be lucky or unlucky to meet a yooper, up to you decide, I just happen to be a reguular guy that
is proud of where he lives and the history and traditions of the Upper Peninsula. The UP is good place to live, no big cities, lots of
woods and water, low crime rates, neighbors that willingly help each other out, you pump your gas before paying for it and the attendant
isn't cowering behind bullet proof glass, if ya break down on the side of the road someone will stop to help ya, not rob, rape and/or kill ya.
On the downside their ain't many jobs and we have real winters.
Looking forward to meeting you and your dad
As to will you ever be the same, after
experiencing pappy's place and all the fine folk from all over this country, the hospitality, food,
and comraderie I think you will be changed for life.
