INTERVIEWS AND PHOTOS BY COURTNEY DITTO, CONTRIBUTOR
“You walk outside wearing shorts and a T-shirt in April when it’s 40 degrees.”
“When you drive 90 down the highway, and when you can point out where you live using your hand.”
“When your heat and AC are both on in the same day.”
“When you’re always stuck in traffic and you’re used to getting the finger from people while in traffic.”
“When you look at the Russian winter and think, ‘Oh, that’s not that bad.’ It’s essentially the same.”
“When you see the sun and freak out.”
“When you come home to your brother cleaning guns on the kitchen table, or seeing a deer in your yard.”
“When you a keep a coat, umbrella, flip flops and a tank top in your car all at the same time because with the weather, you never know.”
“When the weather changes every five minutes.”
“When you’re constantly cold.”
