I had a taste of cold and snow when I managed a ski lodge up in Big Bear and I have to tell you, you guys are both right. I wouldn't trade with you for any amount of money....well, maybe six figures, then I could hire someone to do all that totin' and packin' when it's cold. But...with all this warmth we give up the beauty of changing seasons, which comes gradually where you are. Here it's like hot...then cold....then hot. I miss the smell of fall on the air for two or three weeks and the smell of a cold front moving in, and indian summers and the crackle of leaves under my feet, and rocks. I still miss rocks. I bet I couldn't find a rock on the entire thirty acres we live on if someone offered me five thousand dollars for it. I could find a ton of shark's teeth, and if I dig down deep enough, even some sea shells. But no rocks. Do you know what it like to have this entire rock library in your head and you can't share it with your kids?
