Those are the reasons I refused to ever live in snow as an adult. Snow is great to play in but stinks to live in, especially as we get older.

I have met people who have not seen snow, as well as people who had never seen an ocean. Seeing and playing in snow is fun....in the short term. However, I too agree with Rewitch's post. I will also add losing your heat and worrying about frozen pipes. We lived in Michigan and came home from vacation to find our house at 40 degrees and getting colder. Our furnace had failed and we couldn't get the plumber in until the next day.
I was telling someone that the happiest day of my life was when I sold my snowblower. My wife had a funny look on her face....I wonder why?
Oh, and when it is 30 below, this emoji doesn't shiver anywhere near enough to match how cold it is.....
