well i'm talking to you from Dallas what part of the country are you in
oh boy this is gonna be tough i'm in Plano
well we can uh complain together or we'll swear we can complain together about the humidity
exactly
i guess the weather hasn't been too different between us
no i don't think so i wouldn't think yeah i north far north Dallas yeah about a half a mile from Plano so we're in the
what what part of Dallas are you from
oh north Dallas
well jeez
well then you've been getting quite a bit of rain also
yeah it's very very rainy i know oh
how about that how does it compare to the years past
um i don't know i haven't lived here let's see we moved lived out of state
in Wisconsin and we just we lived here ten years ago and when we first lived here we lived we were in Garland East Richardson and um doesn't seem like it was quite as humid
uh-huh
oh
and i don't know then we went we lived in uh Madison Wisconsin for five years um for my husband's schooling and graduate schooling and it just it's a lot cleaner up there but um
it's a lot colder too so
huh well what brought you guys down to Texas then
uh his job he came back to start work again for a different company so
said here here's a here here we are again it just seems a little more humid than it i don't ever remember
how about that
that's great
course you know you only remember the good stuff but um
i just don't remember the humidity
right well
this much rain and this humidity
definitely i'm sure the winters are more mild here
uh yeah they are actually though it was a lot rainier here in the winter uh we came back up August it's just a lot rainier than i remember it all the through the seasons you know
uh-huh
sure
um
it seems that progressively i've been down here five years just over five years now that every spring and summer seems to get more and more rainy
yeah and i think it's because it's just getting more crowded and more polluted i really do think that's part of it
huh
um in in Wisconsin and Minnesota when they get winters it's um the the winters are bad but not what you hear about it's just like down here when you hear when people here think it's a hundred and six people up north think it's a hundred and sixty down here
a hundred and sixty
hundred i'm making that up you know when it's only like ninety five
uh-huh right
sure
um it's just like up there when you hear it's forty below it's probably really only five below
right
um and it's so dry that it's
it's like going to Arizona well probably what you Arizona used to be like you know it's just dry and cool so it's not it's not what you think it is
uh-huh
true
um no there've been times though when it gets so frigid that you you can't stand it where did you move here from
Colorado
well there you could talk about that that's that's a strange state for
oh sure i i'm uh i'm very familiar my grandparents and all my relatives are from Wisconsin
oh there you go okay
so i'm uh quite familiar with how it is up there and if you kind of interesting
uh the people down here typically don't think it gets above you know fifty degrees
this is very true
and it's always snow you know but uh
yeah right well actually the summers up there we thought were the most beautiful time of the year
oh yes
um in terms of Colorado i know my husband likes to camp and backpack and all the stuff i don't like um but i'd used to go on i worked for a mortgage company in Wisconsin and i did a lot of business in uh
um Colorado well Denver and that's that's probably one of the stranger things when you see the air inversions
um-hum
and then you go into the mountains and it's snowy and cold uh it just was a very mixed bag in terms of Colorado
oh sure
my parents just live uh thirty miles south of Denver and it can be sunny and
and no problem in Denver and they'll be having snow
is that strange
so it's pretty amazing it can be that drastic in just a short distance
yeah and then things like tornadoes are there tornadoes in Colorado yes or no i don't
uh it's getting to be more and more of a possibility
yeah
it used to be no problem just because it was such a a rugged terrain and with trees everywhere but now as they start to clear more things out
the mountains yeah
even i mean i'm originally from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania and i can tell you that um
they've even had in eastern Ohio and then western Pennsylvania they've even had i'm going to say mini tornadoes for lack of a better word and and that's just a part of the country that it's rolling hillside
um-hum
that was unheard of you know twenty years ago
right
um so i don't know what's happening if it's you know we are
the greenhouse is i don't really know
yeah me neither
it just you know
but
it's definitely not as um
i know i associate the pollution with weather in general so i guess one thing we do miss is that's a smaller town and it was it was just it just seemed a little bit more pleasant in terms of the atmosphere you know
sure sure well it's been good talking to you good bye
you too okay bye-bye
