| It's a tad bizarre--I watch this series and then, as a resident of Gogebic County, find myself tuning into the clothing, the accents and the lifestyles more than ever before. I watch the show like the rest of the world--through this camera. I see the shots of the naked trees...the snowstorms and high snowbanks...the beat up pickup trucks. And then I turn off the t.v...walk outside and see it all right there around me. "Wait a minute," I say to myslef. "This isn't about some separate group of people somewhere...this really is about us!". I was just in Watersmeet last week and still find it surreal to think that this is the same landscape that's being broadcast into thousands of homes across the land. And let me give a shout out to Dr. Steven Fiorucci, whose office sits on the main drag in Watersmeet (hiway 45) right next to the school!! A friend...and the best physician in the western U.P. (if not in the Upper Midwest)! | |
