36 degrees in (probably undisputed) western North Carolina. Brrr. Dogwood Winter?

somebody was doing something when they drew NC's boundaries...
I'm only on this thread because it seems like the likeliest place to talk about my twin loves of gangster rap and poetry. I don't get to drop as many poetry references as you would think when I speak to doctors but I get to drop more rap lyrics than you might think.
A sorority sister worked in Yellowstone one summer. She told a story about being followed by a moose - there may have been some level of a lack of clothing involved. She said they typically have more moose attacks than bear attacks each year. Guess they relocated to Vermont?
years ago my wife and I went on a tour(our own private tour, no one else involved), the exclusive point of which was to see moose in the wild. We went in fall rutting season, when the moose get randy...we spotted a huge bull moose a safe distance away, he was snorting and carrying on, and only then did we see, emerging from behind a hill which was MUCH closer to us, snorting bull moose number two...we bolted out of there.
One of the main issues with moose is that their eyesight is crappy, so when they're rutting, they don't know or care that you're a human, you're just more competition. A famous moose researcher from Quebec met her demise in just such a fashion.
But he’s not a gangsta poet.
