Just happened on your site and found it very informitive. I was born and raised in LaCrosse. I have many happy memories of my youth and growing up in a small town with good friends. I joined the U.S. Air Force in 1950 two months after the Korean started, and for all practical porposes, have only been back on rare visits since. After spending twenty years in the military, I retired in Sacramento, California. I worked at a couple of other jobs until I retired again at age sixty five. Now I spend my time working in my woodshop, playing with my PC,and spoiling my grandchildren. I listed this site in my favorites so I can return when I get nostalgic for my boyhood home. Thankyou for such a wonderfull place to visit. R.D.Nelson

Many many years ago I went to a country school which was taught by Mrs. Ackerman. I believe it was call "Pleasant Valley School" and was Northeastish of Mauston. I am now residing in England and would love to find some pictures of it to show my daugher who is studying to be a teacher. I have searched the net but have not been sucessful at the moment. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Regards Darryl Vanderhoof

Born in Mauston in 1939 and left in 1957. A very nice site to visit. Well done Mauston. However, the population has dropped off a lot after I left. LOL

I have had the Good Fortune to be Born in the Gardner Dam Scout Camp on the Wolf River, where my DAD and MOM cooked for the Eagle Scouts for the summer of 1935. We moved to the Roddis logging Camp in the Blue Hills about two miles West of the Glendale Two room (1st through Eighth Grades)School, which I attended. My DAD was Known as "Big John " and he cooked for as many as 100 Lumberjacks, 3 meals a day 7 days a week 11 months per year from 1942 to 1950. I was known as "The Youngest "Jack". The Jacks were my Friends, Tutors,Mentors and Playmates. I ran my trap lines on week-ends and camped out Fri. and Sat. nights. During the summer I would ride the Chow wagon out to the Jacks(Lunch) and sometimes take over a skidding horse or team bringing the logs to a "landing" where they used an "A" Jammer and a team of horses to load the Trucks. I have some wonderful experiences to share if anyone is interested. I also attended Bruce High School until I "Sprung my Back'" and ended up in Wisconsin General Hospital for a couple of weeks, missing the second, full semester of my Sophomore year. After taking two one week full pack wilderness treks thru the Blue hills, with my Best friend ,Tom Minot I joined the Marines at 17 yrs of age. I Served 7 yrs and then accepted a position as Quality Control Supervisor For Bill( William) Lear in Grand Rapids, MIThose were wonderful years. Much has been focused upon the (Rowdy side of the Lumberjacks. However, I learned more about life and right and wrong, loyalty and other virtues from my DAD and the Jacks than I did from schools or the "Real World".Ahh, some of the adventures, tears and communes with nature, Wolves and Bears, Coyotes and especially the big Skidding teams,(20 teams with multiple and delightful personalities, the amusing introduction from the "Cross-cut and Swede Saws" to the first, very heavy "Mall Chain Saw ".Many stories to tell and so little time left.I am now 70 yrs old and proceeding to write a book about my great beginnings in the Camps and the wonderfull lessons learned from big John, Big Lawrence(the Barn Boss), Sky-Gazer, Radio Johnson, Pork Chop Charlie, Fig Newton, Bull Cook, Cooky,Cruiser, The clannish differences between the Fins and Swedes and on and on.A unique and wonderful adventure, regardless of -40 to - 52below weather, sleeping with your clothes on covered with Horse blankets, hitting that cold floor in the morning when it was your turn to build up a fire in the converted 50 gallon drum stove, the run to the outhouse,brief stay and run back to the stove to thaw out, etc., etc,I hope to make one more visit to the Blue Hills, if circumstances allow.I want to thank you all for your efforts to make the Blue Hills accessable to the adventure-some and preserving it and it's wonderful history.God Bless you and yours,Gary L.

Very fun web experience. My wife and I live part-time in Chicago, part-time in Viroqua, where we both grew up; it is fun to listen in, virtually speaking, when we are away from our beloved Coulee Region. We encourage people to check out the new public market, Main Street Station, in the heart of Viroqua.. It is a year-round, authentic public market, where local artisans, farmers and other neighbors, sell to the greater village. The market's website: viroquamainststation.com. Viroqua now has a town square, where we can all hang out!

I enjoyed reading about Mauston. The writer did a good job. I am inteerested in Ogle County, IL history. In putting together a booklet about Ogle history, I ran across the name of D.H.T. Moss (I believe his first name was Daniel.) I see in the book THE BLACK HAWK WAR, Moss was a brother of Milton Maughs (founder of Mauston). Happy New 2004 Year! Leonard J.J.

Discovered your wonderful site recently. I grew up in Elroy and in rural Kendall/Hustler area. Who does your literary writing/editing? Have read many of your features and passed some on to fellow writers. Saw several scenes of our summer log (immigrant)cabin retreat in the photo pages. With thanks and admiration.

Don't Let GoThe tender comfort of her early morning embrace.Kissing her soft lips while she holds my face.Waking up with her, life is at it's best.To be still together we are surly blessed.Something she could do from the start.Her smile turns the key to my heart.Along with everything that disappears.Her touch releases all my fears.My longing fulfilled to have her close to me.With her dreams in her eyes, she gives her all to me.In the light of dawn with her head on my shoulder.She cuddles up closer and I gently hold her.Lying there stroking her hair she says, "Don't let go."Something my heart had told me a long time ago.http://jimmorrison.com/dontletgo.wav

I had a great time on your site! THANK YOU!apoem i wrote..I will always cherish you!When the day reaches its end. After the sun goes down. I lie alone listening to my lonely heart pound. It is calling out for you to come to me tonight. I'm felling so alone without you here by my side. My friends say to move on, to let your memory go. The love you gave me that lights my life fills my soul. I pray hard for you and ask God for your soul to keep. Whispering your name, I close my eyes and fall asleep. Through the darkness of my mind, you take me by the hand. You hold me so close in a blissful fantasy land. With a tender kiss you say, "Good morning" just before dawn. Reminding me that you're always with me, then your gone. Such tender moments a heavenly dream I pray comes true. It fells so real that when I wake up I reach for you. Eventhough you're not here to wipe away the tears off my face. I will always cherish you for the rest of my days.

George-- A 'Webring' is a group of web pages and/or web sites linking themselves together. In our Business and Institutional Listings are many of the West Central Wisconsin Web pages that have linked to WCWCW. We have only been online since July 11th, 2000 and are steadily growing. There are links, as well, in the Community Service Announcements Page and in the Feature of the Week page. We are trying to build a website that interfaces our West Central Community internally as well as 'externally' (that is, to the 'whole Internet' Search Engines.) By doing this we are hoping to create an internet community that functions effectively within our community as well as to interface our community to the Internet at large. Thanks for stopping in. You aren't the first person to ask that question. John--WCWCW
