Although he lives in Nebraska, Dr. Dave is still a #Yooper at heart (look it up). Here's one of his "must have" foods when he goes back home (#ifyouknowyouknow). His #MarquetteSeniorHighSchool 40th reunion episode is just around the corner. #80s #80smusic #Forgotten80s #MSHS40

last RT: happy to see protests in Rhinelander, Wisconsin, in the trumpiest pine-forested corner. When we lived in St Louis we had a friend who grew up outside of Chicago, and somehow it came up that his family’s shorthand for the middle of nowhere was Rhinelander. Upon which I was pleased to inform him that to get to where I grew up, first drive to Rhinelander, then keep going north for another hour. #yooper

Happy #906day to any #yooper or #AspiringYooper near and far who celebrates. #906life

I wouldn't have expected @Waymo to be testing in the Upper Peninsula next. Marquette, Michigan experiences harsh winters, making it an ideal testing location! #yooper #michigan

A trip to the Upper Peninsula was unfathomable when we bought our Tesla. The only supercharger was in Sault Ste Marie on the Canadian side. What a difference five years makes!

In the past five years, a number of chargers have been open with Tesla in Mackinaw City, Escanaba, Marquette, and the Soo on the Michigan side. I wouldn't try with the F150 Lightning yet, but it won't be long! It was neat to see several @FreeWireTech at @Meijer

The U.P. basically has honorary Canadian status anyway, so maybe this isn't so far-fetched.

I can trace a lineage back to the boat from 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪 which is unsurprising for a #yooper

Hi all. I joined Mastodon in November of 2022, during the first major exodus from the Bird Site. I never really introduced myself, though, so here is my #Introduction:

I am a technical writer by vocation and a photographer by avocation. I am a reformed Catholic (aka "an atheist"). I used to be a right-leaning independent, but the right has moved so far to the right that I guess I'm a leftist, now.

Oh: And I live in the Midwestern United States. And while this old man really doesn't know his way around the fediverse, I'm doing the best that I can.

That covers the basics, I think. Glad to see the renewed interest in Mastodon, and I'm looking forward to interacting with y'all!

Sad to hear of the demise of Finlandia U. I had no connection to it other than growing up in the sort of place that would have a Suomi College (as it was previously named). Tough times for small schools. #yooper #HigherEd https://www.finlandia.edu/

I realized I never made an #introduction post. 👋🏻 I’m a dad of twins! I was born a #yooper but moved down to the #twincities about 15 years ago now with my partner. I’ve been working in tech for a little over 10 years and have mostly been an #iosdev with a bit of dabbling in other bits of code 🙂. I always enjoyed #karaoke but it has been way too many years since I’ve done that. Glad to be here!
