BTW: It turned out not to be a problem; it only got down to -6 degress last night and today it got all the way up to 3 degrees before it started droping again--LOL

Yeah, if you hurry, you'll be here in time to enjoy the 187°summer in Texas.Mastodon wrote:Brother, come on home.galvestonredneck wrote:Let me tell you something.

Re: Cold Country
Well now, Don't think I havn't though of that. I have to travel to Sioux Falls (largest city in SD, 50 mils south) quite a bit; every time I do, I think, I am 50 miles closer to Texas, do I keep going--LOL
The fact is the town where I live is a wonderful town. It is like being in the twilight zone here. There is almost no crime. The kids are mostly farmers kids and arn't covered with tat's and nose rings. I have yet to in a place here that raised the hair on the back of my neck. The gun laws are even better than Texas and the town is much like the South was 30 or 40 years ago.
Much to my suprise, the people here like Texans and I have started a good business (had to, no place else to work in my field). Except for the winter, this is a wonderful place!
After much study on the matter, I found that a combination of Crown Royal and Sprite makes the winter here a LOT better--LOL
I complain, but the truth is, I doubt I will ever move back to Texas.

Re: Cold Country
Other than the absolute fact that you're ruining both Crown Royal and/or Sprite by mixin' them together, I can't fault your thinkin'. Crown Royal is better sipped...off of the rocks in summer and neat in the winter.galvestonredneck wrote:Well now, Don't think I havn't though of that.

Re: Cold Country
Yeah, good luck up there. The Dakotas and much of Minnesota have good folks; as you described.
All the best. Glad you are hanging around here.

Thank You fine sir! The people who live up here are "different", but in generl very GOOD people. Great work ethic.Mastodon wrote:Yeah, good luck up there. The Dakotas and much of Minnesota have good folks; as you described.

I love reading the Texas CHL for the PASION I can't get in these Cold Regions--LOL A arm waving, pasionate conversation about anything almost never takes place. Spicy food is had to come by also (but I make my own)--LOL
I rarly post anything but I "lurk" all the time, I also keep up with the Galveston paper online and send in a article once in a while.
I love the South, I was raised there and raised my kids there, but you have to admit, it ain't the place it was when we were kids.
