Being from the Sierras and now living in Florida I do miss the winters a little. The cold refreshes things, kills off bugs and other pests, etc., that otherwise would overrun things. Here this Winter in Fl. we've had a consistent cold snap (well what passes for cold down here) for the first time in 5 years. However though I love the snow and y'alls photos are making me homesick I also remember having to shovel it, the road salt that rusts up your car/truck, etc., etc., etc. And though in about two or three years I'll probably sell this place and head back out west I think I'll stay far enough south where I only get a little taste of the snow instead of 4-5 months of it. I do miss snow skiing though and other fun stuff snow brings. To deny that would be lying. I also miss the lack of humidity in northern New Mexico, Arizona, and the Sierra's (high desert) where the reservation is I'm from. 😉 Thanks for sharing the photos!
