| So you'd see rats as a kid? Honestly I don't even know how big/scary they are. I feel like I'd find them frightening. Only harmless Gardiner snakes here. My dad always hated em tho. His childhood house was infested with em. There's mountain lions roaming the plains here and they are scary AF. I find them even scarier here because you can see them from a long ways away, and you can tell when they are stalking you. It's safer, because you can see em and they know you see em, but it's scary when it's following you from 500M away. And yeah, it's extremely cold here. Cold here today. It gets colder here than in the Arctic some parts of winter. It's life threatening. There's a kind of fear of nature present with everyone for about 4 months every year, November - February. In the US, northern Idaho and Montana are beautiful, people in the states are sleeping on that part of their country. The best part about growing up on a farm was probably watching my dad wake up every day at 5 and work until sunset with no boss and only his own brain and braun. Really made me a fiercely independent person. |
