I lived in Waukegan, IL... 12 FEET of snow on the ground... built an IGLOO to store my HD for the season. I had it parked outside my bedroom window... which was half below grade. Wind chill of -65F a couple of winters.

So, I truly understand how long winters impact your life. While we joke about it... its not always funny.
I refused a big time promotion that would have moved me back to Chicago about 15 years ago - a big part of that decision was the weather. Tennessee... paradise in comparison. We get a nice snow about once per year and its gone within a few days. We've been snowed in... and enjoyed it because we knew it wouldn't last weeks or months - its a nice change.. I'd hate to live someplace where it never snowed.

   ;) 49 I honestly feel for you because we are not far behind you now, and that -40 period in Jan Feb is not something to look forward to either, but we will survive and be the better for it........or I think so.......

so the story in the news about the Prince George RCMP officer and the 2 moose who attacked him........did you have something to do with that ?....lol.....made the news even here......

Now you know what all the whining and crying is about!! To top it off, we usually get a stretch of -40 F (or -40C, they are the same) and some -20 to -30 before it lets up in the spring. Waahhh!
