yea, but that's when you get creative with ice cubes!peter said:Me, I'll take the cold anytime, you can put clothes on to stay warm, but 100 degrees +, you can take off just so much clothing.

One of my very good friend Daniel Shank (The hockey fans out here will remember him..The player that kisses his stick(on my advice) after he scored a goal..)(A former player in the NHL for Detroit and Hartford) He'd won the Calder cup with the Adirondack American hockey league before moving up to the NHL.... After that he moved to play in San Diego but he bought a house in Texas ...He stayed in the South States for ten years playing in the international hockey league for many teams...He just cameback around here last August...He told me that after a while in summer the sun is worse than a 40cm of snow...Rebeckah said:you lucky people also get rain. We've barely had an inch of rain this year over here. It didn't rain from October to April at all. It's been quite a switch from those gorgeous thunderstorms once a week in Minnesota. I miss the rain most of all. But 100 degrees and HUMID would make me move. At least it's dry & always breezy which helps. The other day I was thinking that I've stopped aging cuz my body got used to marking years by changing seasons, namely snow.... and since I haven't seen any snow, I've stopped aging. Don't you wish that was all it took? For real!!!

In the north end of Calgary, we got 2 feet of snow dumped overnight with blowing winds causing snow drifts to 3-4 feet high at my back door and garage door. It was a miserable day indeed. Shovelling was the worst kind of wet, thick snow that needs 2-3 shovels deep just to clear what's ahead of your feet. And at the bottom of the snow was the wet slushy stuff
Life in Calgary... cold one day, hot the next
Yes that's true, the coastal mntns cause the moisture drop ... Combo is better qualified to comment 'cuz where I am (interior mnts) we get tons of snow normally (except this past winter) and the temp hovers around freeze most of the time. I have a friend who moved to Vancouver Island only so he could golf in the winter ...Rebeckah said:oh ick Maggie, that is gross. Is moose edible? Does it taste like chicken? Someone I talked with online was from Vancover & told me they mainly get rain in the winter cuz of the warm pacific air. Is that true? If so, it sounds lovely.

Maggie said:Careful,kitty, you don't wanna be wearing one of them. Although, when I was a kid growing up in the north, the hunters actually tied the moose heads down onto their hoods and drove around parading them. Those rough tongues hanging out and down were just plain old gross. UGH!!

If you won I'd wonder if there would be a moose shortage out there.
