[Guest guest]

-Now now Uncle Rusty... don't be knocking good ole Minnesota!!!

Its a beautiful place to live... we get 4 definate seasons.. once

you get bored with one, not to worry a new one is just around the

corner theres a million and one things to do here... summer sports

AND winter sports!!

After having just got back from the desert in AZ... I loved seeing

my lovely trees again, even if they dont have any leaves. I wouldnt

want to live anywhere else...

And...... if it gets too cold, well you can just cuddle up to your

honey in front of the fire and snuggle!!!

Hope all is well with you Uncle R

hugs Helen and (7,systemic)

LOL! I had to pull up a map of MI so I could refresh my memory of

where Flint is! Travers City, jeez! I have an uncle in East Lansing

and I've been to Detroit a few time, that's a lot closer - ha! I

hear Saginaw is beautiful too but I've never been....

Yes, MN is beautiful. We're actually not that much further north

than where we grew up so it's not too much colder....

BTW, I was born in the early 70's

I surrender, I surrender! don't beat me up..lol all ya'll Minnasotea'ns!

lol hahaha

yes that is one thing I do miss about Mi. is the defenite seasonal

changes, but! even though Kentuck has very little snow fall the seasonal

changes are non the less very noticeable. I am sorry I didn't make it to

Minn for the 2002 AJAO Conference as I know through photo's and such that

Minn asota is indeed a beautiful sate. And with 10,000 lakes unlimited

fishing spots!

I was ask before when I moved to a warmer sate, why didn't go to AZ to

live, well I do love the seasonal changes and make to have that crisp

brisk morning air of winter and I love first snow!

I know AZ does get snow even in Phoenix but I still close to family this

way..only 430 miles from Flint...

I hope and ! will be feel wirery, enegenic and full of

spunk for the first good sleding snow!!! take a run down the slope for me

guy's!!!! and shout...RUSTY AWAY! as your flying down that hill on your

sled or tabogon!!!

hplta!.....Rusty
