You know you live too far North if-

you go outside after it snows and can't find your car

the kids have to put snowsuits under their halloween costumes.

You are watching a fight and a hockey game breaks out.

if it goes above zero that's a warm day.

you don't have to hold your breath to turn blue.

You have a dozen or more recipes for Moose Meat.

You still have four seasons-winter, still winter, end of winter and almost spring.

you think a Pike is a fish and not part of a highway.

the "Red Green" show is your favorite TV program.

You get excited whenever you can see bare ground.

you have to wear spikes on your shoes and you're not a golfer.

You carry salt in your car all year long and it's not for consumption.

You don't have to put your food in a freezer just put it outside.

Doug and Bob Mackenzie are your two favorite actors.

you leave your Christmas lights up all year round.

(anyone else have some)

You have a plug in heater for your car's radiator,

Your girlfriend has jumper cables in her car - and knows how to use them,

The grocery store has 5 unattended running vehichles in the parking lot,

You own a roof rake, and;

Sorel snow boots with a 3 piece suit is acceptable attire.

This would be a :biglaugh: ---- but too true!

I remember my first South Dakota winter (not too long after The Rock), seeing the electrical outlets in the parking lots. I had NO idea what they were for. Someone had to explain it to me (we didn't have such things in NJ). :biglaugh:
