There’s a big difference in the amount of snow between last year 2018 and this year 2019. Here’s our lower driveway from the same place one year apart. March 2018 March 2019

Where’s the Road?

Sometimes when you live in rural Wisconsin and you go to work in the morning, you’re just not sure where the road is because it’s completely covered with several inches of new snow.

Hauling Hay in the Winter

Last weekend, we went to visit LeAnne’s sister in Mondovi and brought home a small load of really nice grassy hay for the horses.

About Otter Creek Redneck

Otter Creek is a small rural township in northwest Wisconsin — the kind of place where the nights are quiet, the winters are long, where the people, fields and woods hold stories that deserve telling.

Otter Creek Redneck exists to preserve the quiet moments, hard-earned wisdom, and simple beauty of rural life in northern Wisconsin — through honest storytelling, reflection, and lived experience.

This blog isn’t about trends or headlines. It’s about place, memory, and the simple rhythm of life lived close to the land.

Here, you’ll find reflections from the woods, stories handed down through family, and moments that would otherwise slip past unnoticed. It’s a record of rural life as it is — sometimes hard, often quiet, always honest.

Because these stories matter.
And because someday, they may be all that’s left.

Welcome to Otter Creek.
