The people out west are great!  We wondered if the people we like best went 
west long ago since most people we talked to agreed that New Englanders weren't 
very friendly.  Other than that, I just remember when we delivered in Rock 
Springs and then I-80 was closed due to snow and in Rawlins where we had to 
park, there was thick ice and the wind was blowing so hard it broke the 
fiberglass on our truck when it caught my door and ripped it out of my hand.  
It was so cold and the wind was rocking our truck even though we were parked 
between two 53 foot trailers.  Ok, so what's to like?  hehehehe

You got it! But this is where the work was so here we are, and there are
compensatory things to like here, so here we stay, though now retired.
When we get so old we can't handle the winters anymore we may re-think
that, LOL.
