Liner notes

An acoustic country song about the small village of Nashotah, Wisconsin, tracing its roots back to the old Pine Lake train station on Rasmus Road. The vocals sing of quiet evenings dining at the historic Red Circle Inn and the tight-knit community of Lake Country. Gentle fiddles and a steady acoustic strum capture the enduring, peaceful spirit of this historic railway stop.
