SOmE PEOPLE AROUND EAU CLAIREliketocomplainthatcollegestudentsnevergetoffcampus.Theyneverreallyseethecity.Theyneverfullyappreciatewhat’sgoingonhere.They’rebasi-callyself-absorbedtoddlers,andthey justdon’tcare about the hard-working, creative peoplewhobuildthistownintosomethinggreat.
Butweknowthat’snottrue.OK, it’s kinda true. I mean,
there’s always a few weird globsof unfinished Gummi Bear stucktothebottomofeverybag,right?Nobody’s perfect. I’ve definitelycomeacrossacertainkindofper-sonwhojustdoesn’tknowhowtoliveinacity.Youknowthetype–theystick to their routines.Theykeep their heads down. Theyrarelyexplore.

Butthankfully,thesekindsofpeoplearefewerandfewer.

words.Thesearepeoplewhoneedtogetoutandreallyseewhat’sgoingon.Andwhenseeingwhat’shappeningaroundherejustdoesn’tcutitanymore,theystartingmakingthingshappen.
EauClaireisasweetspot.Overtheyears,I’vecome to understand that it’sfilledwiththerightkindofstuffto create almost anything youwant.It’sbigenoughtoofferyouavarietyofresources andarealaudience, yet it’s small enoughthat you won’t get lost in thenoise.People liveherefor theirentire lives without ever reallygettingthatconcept.
