South Dakota, December, 1980

At my grandparents' ranch. Dad, just another day of shoveling snow. The back rooms of the house were built into the bank for additional warmth in winter, cooling in summer. It was demolished by new owners about 25 years ago. I've placed the photo where the house used to be.

Don Barrett (aka DBs…

All the times I lived in the north was in coastal places where the snow never stayed stacked so nicely -- and we didn't usually have that much.

I've seen it that way on Hwy 140 to Medford and on the highway to Crater Lake even higher. No, certainly not the coast. If Klamath Falls has more than 8" it's a big deal.

Ha, ha...........back in the days you could leave school at 15. Not allowed now of course (the school leaving age was raised to 16 in 1972 I think). We were called Boy Seamen and our year of basic training at HMS Ganges, at Shotley near Ipswich, included 4 hours of English and Maths a day!

The one time I saw snow that deep, dry, and stable, was in Lassen in the early summer when the roads had just opened: www.flickr.com/photos/donbrr/5545548151
