I would LOOOOVE to! We get brutal summers and heat waves here, too, so it's no big thing. Plus I love the sun and warmth, so nah!

 

We get both brutal winters and summers, so I stand by my remark W-U-S-S-E-S!

Summers up north are every bit as miserable as in Georgia, RaE.

I'm laughing at ya'll and totally agree with, Chi- Wussies! You aren't "cautious" - you're paralyzed!

We got an inch or so last month and everything shut down for 3 days! It's ridiculous. I understand you aren't used to it, but geesh! Driving on snow isn't rocket science. If I can do it and stay out the ditch, anyone can.

Ditches can be pretty fatal here, though... MI's ditches didn't provide 50' drops... but you're closer to the flat stuff than I am.
