Mtdobies Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 This morning its beautiful when its green, the moose love that mountain in the background. Coffee, apple cider and a Mt morning cant beat it.. Its calling ya comp...
Compenstine Posted April 13, 2014 Author Posted April 13, 2014 I wish I could afford a trip there, I would be there in a heart beat. Just can't I have too much invested in what I have here.
joejoevapekins Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 I can't handle y'all winters lol. Working in North Dakota broke me from ever wanting live up north. The last year I was there it was -62 with the wind chill. We were using rose bud torches to heat the fuel tanks and hydraulic tanks just to get the equipment staged for winter lol
Mtdobies Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 North Dakota is some miserable country, that I've gotta admit! The oil fields are either frozen or so deep in nasty mud so thick.. but good money, had a friend working in the crows nest running a drill rig and got frozen in, they had to thaw it to let him out.we have the mtns that block alot of the wind chill, but I have had trees go off like shotguns next to me when sap froze... its nice when spring comes and summer. I've been thru some wiland fires though so I guess I've learned to appreciate or tolerate the bad winters better, lol weather means we Dont burn..I wouldn't mind being a snow bird as I get older. Its sure got its benefits though,
joejoevapekins Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 Lol I'll stick with my foot hills of the Appalachian mtns in Alabama.
Mtdobies Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 That's one place I've never been, is it pretty humid there? I just love the change of seasons, cheap land lots of clean water and well laws that Dont squash ya ..
Compenstine Posted April 13, 2014 Author Posted April 13, 2014 Montana has it's cold weather but that gumbo mud is the worst stuff on the planet. LOL It will take your shoe right off and not give it back. I lived there as a kid and loved it. I found Northern Minnesota winters to be a lot worst.
Mtdobies Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 I guess One forgets the cold when you see a pair of balds soaring, or a whitetail delivers her fawns on your doorstep.. I love Montana, but then its spring... if you had asked when we got -30 and the house wouldn't get above 53 I might have said different. Lol
joejoevapekins Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 It can get humid out but its one thing I've lived with most of my life so its not bad to me. Where I live there is about 2,000acres in my back yard that I have access to for fishing and hunting. So my deep freezer stays stocked year round with game
Mtdobies Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 that's nice isn't it, we have a game preserve behind us too.I lived in st cloud fla. For a bit and felt soaking wet & sticky all the time. But it was swamps everywhere.
