Definitely Alaska
Mr. Garrity's public service announcement over the intercom at Sand Lake Elem. right before school got out (and imagine this in your best Elementary school principal voice): "There's been a moose spotted near the school so please be careful on your way home if you're walking. Remember to never harass a moose and if a moose charges you... run away."
The other reminder that I'm in Alaska is that I got in my car this morning, realized I would have to get back out and scrape my windshield, congratulated myself on leaving my Toko lobster mitts in the passenger seat, put on said lobster mitts, scraped my windshield with an old Tour of Anchorage ski scraper, and drove off over a very white should-be gravel driveway. It's April 10th.

Are you complaining about snow? Houghton is in the middle of a blizzard currently. We are supposed to get well over a foot of new snow. I cant see out any of my windows. The 1+ foot deep base we had on the trails still apparently wasnt enough.

Hah! You know about the falling moose and the totally wired moose, right? Classic.
erik- hardly complaining! Just confused with the alaskan idea of spring. I do hear reports that there's good skiing and fresh snow in many parts of the rest of the country too though.
si- I had not seen those moose articles, thanks for introducing me... ah, moose.
