We'll get a little of that here next month and Febuary. Not much though.
I grew up around Louisville, (both sides of the river). I had all that I needed when I was a kid.
Chef;
Are you telling us that, that is Greenville? We may get some snow this weekend, cold front is suppose to move in. It's been in the fiftyies here at 6,700 feet. So I've been riding while the sun's up.
Hey Tony ... I certainly am not considered to be sane .... but it certainbly is nice to pull on the ski clothes and zip down the mountains ... and equally fun to pull on the proper gear, jump on the snow beast and trail ride or carve powder on frozen lakes ... and then relax in front of a fire with a hot chocolate (flavored with rum, of course) and great company.
I'll keep my four seasons, thanks ... even if it does limit my Wing time occassionally.
:shock:
Tony,
I have a few friends (from Alberta) that spend much of the winter around Phoenix ... which my granpdarents also did.
Which leads me to believe that we're talking an influx of "golden oldies" to your area ... which makes me more determined to stay with 4 seasons ... at least one or two seasons without following someone with the left turn signal on for 200 miles ... LOL
I guess I am just another crazy Canuck, but I too enjoy the four seasons. I have skied since I was 16, taught my 4 children to ski and now I am looking forward to teaching my grandchildren to ski. Some of my fondest family memories, both as a child and an adult, have been winter moments. All of that being said, I find as I age, winter less and less enjoyable. One thing both Canadians and our neighbors in Northern US appreciate a lot more than our friends form the south, is spring. There is just no feeling like it other than the first ride of the year on the Wing. Winter is like banging your head against the wall.It feels so good when it is over :banghead:

One of the wonderful things about the North, are the seasons and the fact that a few months can make such a huge difference. Check out the dates on these pictures. The sleigh ride was taken at the end of February and the bike picture in early June, a little over 3 months later
