Twas Christmas Eve upon the prairie / And we hovered round the fire / We could hear the coyote, wary / Seemed as if he’d never tire.

A Christmas Parable from the High Line

Plains Folk is a commentary devoted to life on the great plains of North Dakota. Written by Tom Isern of West Fargo, North Dakota, and read in newspapers across the region for years, Plains Folk venerates fall suppers and barn dances and reminds us that "more important to our thoughts than lines on a map are the essential characteristics of the region — the things that tell what the plains are, not just where they are."
