I will be somewhere else than here when the snow is not flying as long as I am able health and financial wise. I have been here 7 years and you are not going to convince me to stay here in the summer - tried that did not like it.

The important thing is that you be where you like. My wife and I have lived in many locations, but learned early on that you will enjoy any location if you wish to. We grew up in the Boston area - loved it. Moved to Nashville twice - loved it both times. Lived in Atlanta - loved it, but did not like the traffic. You get it. If you want to enjoy a location, you will. If you don't, you won't. I'm happy you are happy avoiding the snow and whatever it is else you avoid.

Me, I'm just tickled pink to be in TV.
