Why I live in the South


My oldest son called tonight from Hamilton, Ontario where he's on a business trip. He said it took him 2 1/2 hours to drive 40 miles...snow & cold. Yep, that's the kind of weather I grew up in...around Chicago & Ann Arbor. Didn't bother me then...sure does now! Luckily, we only have another 3-4 weeks of real cold before we start to see Spring time arrive across the Gulf South. For the next 5-7 days, our weather should be pretty nice. No rain is expected and no real, freezing type cold. So while our friends up north have lots of Winter left to endure, I'm thinking shorts and flip flops!

Frankly, Bob, I think I'd rather have snow over some of the weather the South gets in the winter.

While yor son was up there, Bob, I was enjoying a vacation in Orlando, Florida, where it was sunny and in the 80s. I had a great time at the five, yes five, star resort.
