    Go to wyoming! It's the same thing except you won't drown and you don't need a work visa. Good Luck! Bring a warm coat!

    I was at a dead stop up there due to an accident with a mty new trailer out of great dane in salt lake and the wind started pushing me off the road. At a dead stop, talk about a pinch in the seat cover, I think the groove is still there. It pushed the hind end over a good 8 , 10 inches till it come up against something on the road, I have been in a few tricky ones but I'll admit that left my knees shaking. Needless to say I was at a crawl till the little America exit where I spent a couple hours peeling things out of the butt cheeks

    As said in this thread many a time....you need to be Canadian and last time I checked GA wasn't even close.

    Heck with WY...join us on I90 through MT and over Lookout Pass...just don't get out of the ruts unless you can keep it upright. WY is always windy if you don't have a reefer loaded to the gills. :biggrin_2552: You know the saying "It's windy in WY because CO blows."

    The freezing point of water is 32 F, but not if it is in motion!

    My lovely wife tells the story of when she was up in Alberta, at a lake while on vacation. They were speaking to someone about the area's history and the lake. One of the "old timers" brought up that "no one has ever drowned in that lake"!

    Then he went on to explain that if you fell in, you'd instantly die from a heart attack!
