... Dave, I'm half swiss, Excellent country. I spent a week in Zermott. It was without a doubt the cleanest city and most beautiful scenery I've ever seen for winter setting. I swear that when walking down the hill from the tram to the Kliene Matterhorn you could not tell if it was a painting or real. No, it was way better than a painting - it was almost like you could reach out and touch the scenery. Sorry to get so surreal but it really was, I was walking down the path from the ski lift to the town and it was like a painting and I could touch the scenery. Never had a feeling like that again, it was just so pure. and live for snow. We just don't get any. I love snow too, especially when I can leave in a week or two! ![]() But seriously I grew up, and wish I could still, go downhill skiiing and play ice hockey (started skating when I was 3) I went to International Falls, MN a few years ago (Jan 1-5) and it was *so cold* the snow would'nt stick. I'd never heard of a place where you couldn't make a snowman, a snowball, or anything! It was snow dust!!!! ![]() Now that sounds like how I grew up. The windchill was -40F, and the temp outside was -4 or so. I agree, way way colder than Texas. Yep, so you know what I meant. Just think of that cold for a month when -1 was the HIGH! My bones hurt just thinking about that and it's been 10 years since I've been there in winter! But we (DFW) remain the hail capital of the world. tsk! Luckily we don't get that here in S.A. On another topic, your latest tanks pics are just plain awesome! Cheers, Dave Johnson |
