Dick -You call THAT snow? I remember, long before you were born, it took us two days to walk to school. I headed for school on Monday morning, got there Wednesday morning, I was so tired, I slept through class. Then there was a two day march back home. All I had to eat was icicles hanging from people gutters, and the snow was so deep I had to dig down three feet to find one. This was a really long snow storm, about ten days. You can figure how long it takes to get caught up. Well, you do the math. I never did get caught up, I might have been able to do it, but all through the process, that lousy teacher made me stay an hour after class for being tardy. that's why I just gave up and dropped out of school. Now THAT was snow.

Peter, you forgot to add that it was uphill both directions.
Dick, I had all kinds of good luck, you wouldn't believe it! No fish, but everything else was perfect; reading a good book, cooking warm food over a small camp stove, enjoying hot fresh brewed coffee...priceless.
