We never got any but we were amused that it was the thing everyone told us to do :) Nathanael,

I've missed your posts. Glad to hear you had a refreshing time. "Are You My Mother?" was a family favorite growing up. One of my little sisters had a stuffed walrus named "Snort." Did you ever see "Regarding Henry" with Harrison Ford? The book plays a role in the movie. Trusting you survived the 3-day drive with the two kids. Welcome home. Welcome back, sister.

Neither of our definitions of 'snorts' appear in the online versions of Merriam-Webster or the Oxford English dictionary. Current definitions of "snort" allow for 'inhaling' breath suddenly like one of our old 90's South Central (and West LA) neighbors doing a line or exhaling breath suddenly (and angrily) like a bull. I guess So Cal snorkelers and NW bulldozers both qualify by those standards respectively :^) The Wikipedia oracle recognizes snorkelers as 'snorts' but not bulldozers. Sounds like you're on the creative edge of language. Great place to be. Oh well.

Check now and the link should be there! :) Tom,

My sister and I learned to water ski on Couer d'Alene back in the 60's when nobody with money had heard of Their Own Private Idaho :^) Wherever you were sounds wonderful. We've got tiger muskies in a handful of lakes here in Colorado too. Can't figure out how you're using 'snort.' On the southern west coast snorts are snorkels or snorkelers. While Andrew and I were hiking we used to see goofy weekend miners with snorkels and wet suits excavating some of the rivers in the San Bernardino mountains just east of LA looking for gold. How does a snort work on a cabin in the Northwest? My folks regularly drove up from San Francisco to Spokane to visit our friends Dorothy and Cliff when I was very young.
