	I've often wondered: What could possess someone to live where 3-foot snowfalls are the norm? I hope you like snowmobiling! -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"  |

Yup... You get to make snowballs with it, snowmen, snowmobiling, skiing, 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
	
		 
		
	
	
	sledding, photographs ... later in the year you get to swim in it, go sailing on it, more photographs... later still you get to water your lawn with it, wash the car, take a shower, more photographs... and finally you get to watch it flow down the river towards the setting sun, more photogrpahs and next year it evaporates off the lakes and comes back to us as snow... Nice stuff, snow.. denny "Jay Honeck" wrote I've often wondered: What could possess someone to live where 3-foot snowfalls are the norm? I hope you like snowmobiling! -- Jay Honeck  |

	After 22 years in the newspaper business, I still shudder in sympathetic pain when the snow flies. With 100 drivers on the road, a major snowfall always meant that my phone would ring all night long. I can't even count how many cars I jump-started or pushed out of snowbanks... Now, I look out the window and smile as those big flakes float gently to the ground... And then I remember that I now have eight 70 foot-long balconies and four parking lots to shovel... ;-) I hate snow. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"  |

	Hey, I lived on the leeward side of the Big Lake. Lake effect snows were something of an aberration -- not a way of life, like they are in Buffalo! I hope you like snowmobiling! Weren't dey street legal oop dere fur 6 months oof da yeer? ;-) Back in the mid-to-late 70s, when we had that decade of really bad winters (remember the Blizzard of '78?), snowmobiles were often the only reliable transportation available in Wisconsin. We lived in Southeast Wisconsin, however -- not street-legal down there. Ya gotta go to Eagle River for that, doncha know? -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"  |

I'm nautically sensitive: I've been reading Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin novels, from which the recent "Master & Commander..." film was taken. HIGHLY recommended. The movie was good, but the books are much better. Fascinating and entertaining reading. -- Dan C172RG at BFM (remove pants to reply by email)  |

	Despite growing up on the shores of Lake Michigan, I'm remarkably ignorant, nautically. Sailing strikes me as WAY too much work. Just give me a big motor, and a hand-full of throttle, and I'm okay, though! :-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"  |
