This blog is based in Northeast Ohio, what was "La Nation du Chat," the Cat Nation, as the French-Canadian furtraders called the Land of the Erie Indians. The blog will touch on many issues: nature, the environment, literature, poetry, society, and politics. Around here we think of the Lake Erie shoreline as the North Coast of the United States--a Frontier in the midst of the Rust Belt.

Welcome to a New Coughlin! Ryan and Nellie's Baby Girl
My brother Kevin's son Ryan, and Ryan's wife Nellie, have brought a new baby into the world: Margaret (Maggie) Jean Coughlin, a 7 lb. 6 ounce beauty. "Margaret" was the name of my mother (Ryan's grandmother). My mother helped take care of Kev's boys, Ryan, Tommy, and Cody, the last years of her life (a great blessing both for my Mom and for Kev's boys). What a wonderful thing that Ryan and Nellie named their baby after Mom. I hope Baby Maggie has the spirit of her Great Grandmother!
