I never understand why people who live in such climates like and even
MISS those climates. That's hell to me. If I want to see snow and
blizzards, I'll head to Lake Tahoe where I can rent a ski cabin, head
up to the slopes, gamble, and then head home when i'm tired of the
snow. What's even funnier is when people from cold climates come here,
acclimatize and then end up freezing even more than the locals do.
Yes, snow is pretty, blah blah blah, but it's an inconvenience and a
hassle to me.
Besides, I rather like seeing the hills turn green in winter than
everything looking dead and white.
