Welcome to Ned's North Woods Narrative, which has its origins set in the deep forests and sparkling lakes of Northern Wisconsin. This new and unimportant bit of journalism has been inspired by a blog that my son John and daughter in-law Courtney publish about life with their new son (and our first grandchild) Miles, in Boulder Colorado. Courtney writes the articles and John & Miles pose for the pictures.



February and March in the North Country inspire a kind of rural wit and wonder that in most other times of the year would be counted as just a bunch of boring gibberish. When you live amongst the trees in these two months however, it's amazing how your thoughts seem to become "inspirational" and "profound". You see the world much more clearly when you're about to nod off into a much deserved nap in an over stuffed Barka-lounger. My Sunday afternoons thought life becomes allot more prolific after the super bowl has been played, and so at the urging of all my literary fans out their (whose names escape me at this particular moment) I have decided to jump into publishing.



The only agenda which this blog will convey is that if one has a strong opinion on any particular subject, just wait a a day or two and it will pass. If you read it more than once, you will find that this blog will include articles on a wide range of subject matter, from the writers views on politics and religion, to reviews of books read and movies rented (income restraints keep me out of the theaters in mid winter here). There no doubt will be quite a few pictures if I can figure out how to add them into the blog format, but no need to worry, they will all be clean! I'll will do all I can to keep dirty words from landing here, and I promise not to resort to name calling or character assassination. If I break these promises you can post a reply (I think you can post a reply?).



So, there you have it! An invitation to visit an original and highly informative new blog which promises to hold your interest. One caution however, my wife says I never keep my promises.



I hope to see you return again and again to this site. If you do, please send a cash donation each time you visit! ( just kidding).
