do you guys do it? We had 12 inches of snow here in southern Utah in the
past 24 hours. I can't imagine what it would be like to live in this
****. We took pictures, the dogs romped around, I had to go out with the
broom and clear off the windshield so I can go to town. I had to go up on
the roof and scrape the snow off the dish so I could watch tv.

I cannot imagine living all winter like this.

I don't, I moved from Michigan to Florida!

Trading humidity and snow for humidity, bugs, gators, leopards, and
_hurricanes_? Smart man, Mikey!


I moved from Northern Michigan to the California desert.

Least I dont have to move 12' of snow every winter anymore.

Even though it gets pretty crisp on winter nights, eh?

It got down to a balmy 35 the other night at 3am with a wind chill of
around 21F. Not as crisp as - 40F with a 50 mph wind, what I grew up
in. Life line out to the privey etc etc.


Does tend to be warm in mid summer though....

Uh, you misspelled "gawdawful sweltering" there, boy.

Not as bad as Aridzona though close at times.
