Never turn you back on the world....

So I learned a valuable lesson tonight. I turned my back on the world for about an hour and damned if it didn't turn white. Now it is not even Halloween yet and already we have snow?

Sigh - I am not much of a winter person. I hate winter in cities. It is ugly and dirty and just plain miserable. Now tucked away in a cozy cabin in the thick stand of forest with good trails for cross-country skiing or snowshoeing and I'm there. Ice fishing? You bet!

But stomping through dirty grey slop and getting sprayed by oblivious drivers is not my idea of winter cheer. Nope - I figure I have to come up with a lifestyle that lets me avoid such misery. Let me see -how about winter in the desert or the Mediterranean or maybe Thailand? Ah - at least I have my dreams to keep me warm.
