...between the Northwoods and us. The reality of life is now looking at us squarely in the face. We have been at some meetings about the cell tower where people have been less than civil. On other issues we have felt the rivalry between between two local governments. And one situation we did know about before we moved in - that the people who live on our lake are not as good as the people who live on the lake connecting to ours. (Most of the people on the other lake are quite wealthy and don't like to hobnob with the little folk over here.) We have been laughing off the last one for a long time. "Just ask the people on the other lake, they'll tell you we are not as good as they are." "We are not worthy." [Think Wayne and Garth.] At least we can laugh off that one.
People are people no matter where you live. It was foolish for us to think otherwise. Even though the honeymoon is over, there is still a solid marriage of real life experiences with the Northwoods. We can live with that.
