Wherever I am standing when I say it, I am from – and of – New Auburn, Wisconsin.  Nothin’ without Nobbern.  And these days I get my mail at the Fall Creek post office (where Shirley knows your name).  But beginning in the fall of 1983 and running right up into the present, the river city of Eau Claire, Wisconsin, has forked me into tangents I never saw coming.  That’s a story I’ve already told.  What I like about this story is how it focuses on the new generation and what they’re doing.  (Full – as they say – disclosure: in addition to his writing career (and dare we say it, banjo career) Andy Moore is also the Wisconsin Public Television producer who converts my bloopers into what has become known around here as “The Clodhopper Report“).
