Ryan
I figured that Ryan was maybe not only Crazy, but Crasier than Hell or maybe just young if he likes the snow that much.
Maybe it's both, after checking out his profile Ryan's only 22 fer cryin out loud.
I used to like it myself when we lived next door in Minnesota, but then I was only 12-13 back then and didn't have to drive in it or work outside.
Somehow it was fun to slip on two pairs of jeans, come in after sking or otherwise playing in the snow, take the outside pair off and stand them in the corner as they would be froze solid from the knee down.
Edit:
Then when I was Ryans' age I drove in the nasty Oklahoma Freezing Rain and snow to get out in the fields to rabbit hunt.
One year I shot an Oklahoma Jack Rabbit, a rarity in this part of Oklahoma. A bunch of us big ol' boys was out hunting on a really cold day. I layed the rabbit on his back and adjusted his legs so that he looked like he would standing up after he froze.
We came back that way a few hours later and found the jack frozen solid.
One of the guys got the idea of standing the jack out in the middle of the road, propped him up with a stick while we made another pass through the feilds we had hunted earlier in the day as we knew we had missed a few rabbits the 1st time through.
Not long afterwards some ol' boy came along in his truck, saw the jack and stopped.
He got out and pulled his .22 from the rack in the back window, took a stance and braced himself on the door of his truck and fired. The ol' jack went for a tumble while we was all way up on the hill laughing our asses off.
The good ol' boy jumped back in his truck, drove down to the fallen jack, got out walked over to it, picked it up and discovered it froze!!!!

It was funnier than anything as he looked around and spotted us good ol' boys up on the hill laughing our asses off. He throwed the jack in the back of his truck and ambled on off into the sunset.
Must've been really hungry.
