What the heck is a Yooper? Well it's a spin off the acronym U.P. which stands for Upper Peninsula...the U.P. of Michigan. Easy eh? You betchya! haheha We talk different dontchya know.
After retiring from a 25 year tour with the world's greatest Air Force, I settled down in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Just loved Colorado and after 2 tours of service their, I stayed to retire. A few years later and my Mom found ovarian cancer. So I decided to come home and care for her and spend what time she had left...together. I vowed that she would never go to a nursing home.
So here I am back in da U.P! I'll throw up a few pics so you can just get an idea that I am real and do exist. Hope you enjoy.
