The winters really aren't that bad. When I was young, winter began in late Sept. and held on touh until APRIL/MAY!!!!!! Today, we rarely see any snow until mid Dec and even then it is sparse, and it is all over by March - I am out golfing in March!
So the great beer and the tax free winnings outweigh the cold.........besides, if you drink enough beer, the cold seems to disappear anyway!
I always love to go to Florida in january when it is 65 degrees and walk the beach in shorts.........watching the locals walk beside me in a coat and wooley hat!
