David Cagle asked if we still had snow up here in Minnesota. David, my mother and father thought it snowed here 12 months of the year. They were up here only once, and it did snow.... March 1970.... but while in-route home to Indiana they got stuck in Chicago for 3 days because of a 2" snow storm there, we had more than 14" during their stay here, and they didn't complain a bit, thought it was fun! No it doesn't snow here every month of the year. We have four seasons, just like you all down in Tennessee.....but our season are different than yours. Oh, we have fall, winter, spring, but our 4th season is "Road Repair". And our winters usually are from Thanksgiving to Easter (depending on how late Easter is). Aren't you glad you asked, David! And yes, that Robert & Susan ALLISON info came from me some time ago....but still valid. Best Wishes, Tom Evans Bloomington, Minnesota
