“I saw snow flurries in Miami”

I had to drive home from a night course at FIU in those flurries in an old Mustang with no heat. LOL!

DAMN; y’all are just kids.
That winter I was living up on Islip Saddle and working for JPL at Table Mountain.
Good snow; and because I did electrical and mechanical work on the side for the ski lifts in the area, I always got free season passes.
Met my beautiful wife of 40 years when she was up skiing for the weekend (you don’t need to know the particulars of that).
She had a crappy old Mustang that didn’t have a heater, used to worry like hell when she went down the mountain in a blizzard back to school in LA.
I’d have to sit by the phone for hours to hear she made it OK.
Still have all my old cold weather gear and have added to it over the years.
Really don’t like being to cold or to hot.
Can’t wait for it to start again, it’s been over 2 years since I had any cold dry snow over 3 feet high.
