Welcome to The new Driftless Blog. This blog will report from the small village of Viola, Wisconsin, and the surrounding area.
Please take part in this blog if you have anything to add.

Right now it's cold and the snow is blanketing the village like a creamy froth.

Viola has a population of 667 people, and is located on the banks of the Kickapoo River.

In August of this year, Viola was hit by a series of tornados, which caused incredible damage and woke our sleepy little village up. FEMA came a bit late, and told us that we had cleaned up the damage too quick. They denied us any Emergency help. The Village is still rebuilding.
