I was born in Ontario Canada and enjoyed many winters as a child there. My family moved to Massachusetts where I endured 30 some odd winters until I moved to San Diego in 2004. I didn't think it was a big deal until my second winter in SoCal with no snow or pot holes etc.
We moved back to New England in 2007 and I just have to say that I can't stand it. The cold, the miserable people (due to the cold), the crap roads etc. I understand how people who have never lived away from the colder climates can't understand how nice it is to not endure a winters icy grip. I'm working to get back ASAP
