Why I Love Living in New England
December 6, 2009 – 8:21 pm
Those unfortunate souls living in snow-less climates just won’t understand. When you wake up on a Sunday morning with the trees covered in snow, it’s just one of those days that makes you feel glad you live in a real four-season climate.

Doug…beautiful snow. Boston is a special place…love it.
But…I will argue that the “four-season” myth is overblown.
Living in San Diego I can experience all four season within driving range. Not only that, I don’t have to shovel snow, heat my house, or worry about black ice.
Every climate has advantages and disadvantages and snow in early December isn’t snow in February.
I would like a white Christmas – oh – every five years or so. Luckily, I can have it by choice with local mountains just 45 minutes away.
Happy Holidays!

SF SHIFTer here, *VERY* jealous of your winter wonderland. And your fall foliage. And heck, all of it.

I’ll admit it’s pretty to look at (nice video!), but I sure don’t miss driving in it :) We got a taste of December snow down here in Austin last week. It blew around for 20 minutes, I got my video (http://vimeo.com/7986514), and then it was gone–hopefully for the year! No snow to shovel, or scrape off the windshield.
But to each his own, of course, Doug. Enjoy the winter!

Scott: 3 Words for you. San. Diego. Padres. ;)
Becky: I love San Francisco, but indeed you are missing a proper winter
Bryan: Shoveling snow and scraping ice builds character. Glad you TX wimps at least got a little taste of a real winter. Plus– no more comments that I did another car video?

Love having the cold weather season…mostly because when Scott’s (@prgully) Chargers come to the Razor in Foxboro, they can’t win!
