[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by CShaveRR Well, Ms. Cherokee, according to Forum legend, I'm already there! Actually, I found that joke about "Da Udder UP" refreshing (having some in-laws who lived there for a while and are just as good at poking fun at that accent). [/quote] My brother was stationed at K. I. Sawyer AFB somewhere around Marquette. He bought a little house in Ishpeming. I had the opportunity to be up there one winter. I also wrecked one of their snowmobiles. It seems they do real well on snow, but not so well on ice. [;)] Anyway I tried to go between two poles and hit a patch of ice, slide sideways and broadsided one of the poles. One of the things that I noticed was the "cold" up there didn't seem to bother me as much as the cold in Missouri and Arkansas. I believe the reason is the lack of humidity up there. It is a dry cold, which actually is easier to take. Well that is my opinion anyway. On another trip up there, this time in warmer weather, we went to Sault Ste. Marie. Somewhere around there was a loading facility for ore. Near the loading facility was a steam engine. I don't remember if the steam engine was in Marquette or between Marquette and Sault Ste. Marie. I still remember seeing it and have always wanted to see it again and have wondered about it. Anyone know of it? I would say something about the accents up there. But then they might say something about the accents down here. [}:)] [;)] And beside, Kathi might decide to come down here and practice some new kicks on me. [;)] I certainly wouldn't want to be the cause of her hurting her knee again, so I won't say a word about the northern accents. [:)]
