We escaped the cold frozen northern wastelands 17 years ago and never looked back! It is truely Gods country in the summer, all green, clear lakes (except Petenwell or Castle rock) rolling hills and LOTs of woods, but I could not deal with the snow/ice/-20 below any longer.
It has been freezing down here for the past week or so at night and more cold coming...but it is usually all warm, sunny, palm trees, (I'm rubbing it in) and you CAN get Point beer here now!!!
Was born in Waupaca & grew up in Rapids/Nekoosa.
