When I lived in Colorado Springs, winter started in October and finished sometime around Memorial Day. There’s always a point where I realize how long it’s been since I’ve seen green leaves.
Liz is growing up. Children look at the snow and think how beautiful it is and how much fun it will be to play in. Adults look at it and think of how dangerous it will make the streets during their next commute.
Elizabeth, soon it will be spring, then will come summer, with the heat, mosquitos, gnats, chiggers, no-see-um flys and other Diptera’s, they you will be wishing it was cold and snowy again.
It’s 1 degrees (-17 C) right now, and there is at least 2 feet (60 cm) of snow on the ground. Yep, it’s the end of March. Yep, we’ve had snow on the ground since November. Yep, Spring can’t come soon enough !
To the land of the Republican Taliban under the rule of Ayatollah Abbott oppressing women removing their right to control their own bodies? I’ll take the snow.
Texas is NOT safe. Every redneck carries a rifle and thinks that is the solution to every issue. Plus your govenor wants to eradicate all LGBT people. Fake “christian” hypocrite. BTW, where was he when the power went down? Exactly.
Snow has appeal if you’re a kid and you ski, sled, toboggan, etc. in it. Once you have to shovel it, all that appeal goes right out the window. Along with the lack of pain in your back…..
You had a beautiful, poetic thing going, and then you spoiled it! I like the snow better than the rain. At least the dogs don’t come in, doing their best impression of a sponge.

Yeah me too. But if last April’s 10" snowfall is any indication of the future, Winter is still lasting past the equinox after all.

Sun, beach, pool, palm trees….Florida is beautiful, but a little snow would be welcome!

I agree with her, and it hardly snowed at all this winter where I am.

Here in southern New England we got a lot less snow than usual this Winter, 2 feet below “normal” in fact.

We’re in a multi year disastrous drought, I would love to be “sick of it.”

Think it is more beautiful laying on the beach with the minimalist of clothing watching the dolphins jump the waves.

Same. We’ve had a few false starts to spring temps…. And then several more feet of snow.

And she is not even the one who typically has to shovel the driveway and sidewalk! Snow, its great to visit but you wouldn’t want to live there.
