You put on a pair of snowboots to get the morning paper. You enjoy a hot chocolate more than a margarita. A girls' basketball game fills the school gym. You put the car heater on your list of best friends. A rodeo is more popular than a Madonna concert.
Tractors are a normal part of traffic.
May. Your telephone book is smaller than most magazines. You have made jerky at least once in your life. You think it's normal to replace your cracked windshield every spring when you take off the studded snow tires. Dressing up means wearing a clean flannel shirt and jeans that aren't too dirty. You can tell it was a bad winter because there are only 50 or 60 deer grazing at the edge of town.
