Ridgeland
Liner notes
Write a gentle acoustic country song about Ridgeland, Wisconsin. Sing about the wooded ridges that give the village its name and the memory of the old Blueberry Line train that once pulled grain and livestock through town. Reflect on the quiet, resilient spirit of this small farming community founded at the turn of the century.
