My Blog is the place to share stories, articles, and ideas. I hope it helps us fulfill our mission. Wimmer’s Wilderness is an informed look at Politics, Community, Government, Environment, and Education from a local perspective.

I hope you enjoy sharing this mission with us and if you have any blog post ideas, please share them with me.
