I lived in a place, (Idaho @ 7000’) where
after the first ‘snowfall’ ... I had to fire up
a D4 CAT to skid the car and belongings
down the hill. (4 fuckng miles and nothin’
but net on both sides)
Ain’t liked it since.
THEN, I had to go back up a week later and
catch the chickens and one stupid cat.
Did I tell ya I don’t like snow?
That was the 2nd week of SEPTEMBER.
I hate snow. Did I mention that?
Change those dates to September and you have Minot AFB, North Dakota. As the sign over the main gate says: “Only The Best Come North”. I reported for duty there in September, 1975. I was greeted by a Staff Sgt. who asked, “Who did you piss off?”
It went downhill from there.
