I Hate Snow

I am not a person who enjoys cold weather. I don't think that snowmobiling is fun, and the only snow I really enjoy is the scene towards the end of the movie A Christmas Story. I think that TV snow is beautiful, the real stuff is awful. I have found only one good use for real snow, and that involves a blender, rum and daiquiri mix. Any questions? I tried snow shoeing once, and I thought my legs were going to fall off. I did not see one thing while I was outside that justified the sore legs that I had for the next three days. Growing up in Florida gave me a certain appreciation for warm weather. I have experienced Christmas by having the air conditioner on and also by huddling around a fire place for warmth. Two guesses on my preference. I don't like icicles either. I think that they are pretty, especially when I see them on television, but real ones are not that great. I always admire the Green Bay Packer Fans and how they can sit in weather that is freezing cold and blowing snow. I see the ones that have painted their chests and risked hypothermia to be seen on television. More power to them. They can take my share of snow and keep it. I'll try to keep the dislike of snow to a minimum in this blog, but no promises. There is a reason that snow is a four letter word. Bundle up and stay warm..You'll thank me later.
