Thanks Mike, that white stuff seems to come every year and doesn't want to leave. I was stationed at Ft. Hood 72-75 so I know was the winters are like down there. Bill

Bill , I was stationed at Ft Hood 68' to March 70' Military police , my only claim to fame is we got to run Hanoi Jane off post in 69 when she was protesting the war in Nam .
You know how nice the weather is in TX so why return to the UP ?

Mike, was born in Minnesota and spent 8 years in western Wisconsin. Joined Army in 72 and then wanted to return to the north woods. Guess this is where I was meant to be.
Windy, Christmas is 100 miles but have been through there. All the same up here in winter.. SNOW!!!
