LOL. 3 inches of snow here give or take and cold. Those guys up north consider 3 inches a heavy frost. It's been a long day.

From my perspective, Winter is a good thing!

1. Kills bugs - there are no fire ants or tree roaches in Ohio. After living down south several years, this alone makes winter a good thing to me.

2. My favorite seasons are spring and fall. To really have good ones you need winter.

3. Need winter to have apples trees and I love apples and all the apple festivals.

4. Some of my best memories growing up and later with my kids are from raking and playing in leaves and building snow men.

5. There are few things in life as peaceful as a morning after a freshly fallen snow.

I could go on, but you get the jest. Some people choose to live where it is cold for a reason, and even though it gets cold, my nuts aren't num.

Yeah, we're getting ready to see our coldest week here also, but it gives me a good reason to fire up the old ashley stove and hibernate in the garage. Something about a 75 degree garage on a chilly day that motivates me to get busy. I'd really like to be working on my truck, but with Xmas coming it's woodworking time making gifts. But it's all good.

I agree. I honestly do like to have four seasons. Spring is my favorite.

That cold was through here a week ago, one night it was 14. So much for not needing a good heater in Albuquerque, huh?! I'd take a foot of snow right now, we haven't had any precip in 6 - 8 weeks, it's as dry as the proverbial popcorn fart.

But it will be near 60 all this week....
