Re: [RC] [RC-Digest] Vol: 03.1100 - Chris PausYah, Olie!!! I did my time up north... lived near Ladysmith, Wis for 15 years most of that time along the Chippewa River in a cabin with no running water and no indoor plumbing.... As my brother used to say, there's two seasons up there.. .winter's coming and winter's here... chris --- Chipnml@xxxxxxx wrote: Why do I live in Minnesota? Well, there are those two weeks in October when it's 55 degrees, no bugs, the hardwoods are exploding with color and your horse is bursting with fitness from the competing and conditioning you've done all season. The other 50 weeks I put up with the snow, freezing rain and mud in the spring, going from 40 to 80 degrees in a day, deerflies that fly faster than your horse can run (I call it "get-fit-or-die season"), swarms of disease-carrying mosquitos...but there ARE those two weeks in October. Plus I'm a fifth generation Minnesotan and we have great public radio here!
