Its not the snow per say its how long it stays cold here. Im a warm weather person, I love to do things on summer days (jet ski etc). But I work 3rd shift also and in June it was in the 40s at night, at least until about the 15th or so. Forget that.
I like putting my flannels away and pulling out my shorts and tank tops. It gets cold here in Oct and usually stays cold until May, this year it was June. Now being born and raised in the south cold to me is anything below 50, and its below 50 for about 9 months of the year here.
My boss asked me once if I like any wintertime activities? I told him, "Ya, standing at my sliding door in my heated apartment and watching people struggle in the snow". I dont like to drive in it, and the past couple years we had quite a bit, and I drive as little as possible in it.
Oh and I do go up to Vail and Aspen sometimes to look at the snowbunnies, man they look good in their snowsuits. At the end of this month im moving back to VA and im not even going to look back in my rear view mirror at this place.
And its also beginning to be like little California here, houses are high, cost of living is insane. Insane traffic 24/7. Words cannot describe how much I hate CO.
When God made the Earth, he made CO out of all the leftovers.
