Welcome to OCC. Where in Ohio are you located?

In Michigan, we call "Yooper's" people who are from the
Upper peninsula of Michigan.
-----Its an affectionate term.:beerchug:
Also they love there "Pasties" ( A form of a pot pie) Yummy!
There is a lot of Swedish/Norwegian/Laplander ancestry in the upper peninsula of Michigan..

You caught me with the mention of black powder and venison.
Oh and the tractor of course. Welcome
