New Years eve way back in 1974 I'm living in a little town about 20 miles north of Boise Idaho. A friend had a band and was playing at a little place just out of McCall Idaho. So a friend and I head up there, it's about 100 miles and the temp is around 0. We are sipping a fifth of Canadian Mist and stop on the snow and ice covered road to piss and it's like being on ice skates. I slide about 6 feet while I'm pissing and don't fall until my pants are zipped. We finally get to the place where the band is playing and have a hell of a good time. After the band is down we end up at this places hot springs swimming pool. At 0 degrees the fog over the pool is thick, lots of naked bodies. I wake up a little confused in the morning because I find myself hanging onto the side of that pool all prune like. Lucky to be alive but not cold. I have a vague memory of slipping off from the side a couple of times!!
