Winter

Roughly 40 years ago I swore I wouldn't spend another winter up here.  And here I still am.  The winters aren't as harsh as they used to be but I'm less and less able to tolerate them.  And here I still am. I really do hate this! A few years ago I entertained myself building snow forts. That would likely kill me now.  I can't even ferment Why I did it except maybe to prove that I could.  Insanity.  I've always had a touch of that!

Winters on the  Usually I barely left the farm except to go to church.  The first few years Steve was terrified to let me drive.  He said that when he was out driving he would picture my car wrapped around every tree and pole he saw. I didn't do quite that bad,  mostly ran off into ditches,  once off a cliff, never wrapped around anything.
