I don't get it. Are you saying that's a platitude that people tell themselves because it sucks where they live?

No, I love the seasons. I love a heavy winter storm and hiking up into the back country for virgin runs in 3 feet of champagne powder. I love sitting in front of a roaring piñon fire drinking hot cocoa. I love the spring thaw and swollen rivers. I love the summer and the heat and the smells and sitting on the porch at night. I love the fall and the aspens turning with long hikes and mountain bike rides.

I've also lived in central Brazil which is quite a bit nicer and more steady than Florida being medium elevation in the tropics (ie. daylight and temperature vary only slightly and it's not too humid). I mean it's nice to visit from a winter climate, but I prefer some variation.



It was a little bit of a joke with a lot of truth to it. I live in Boston now and wish it were warm like Florida but it is worth having crappy weather for everything else the city has to offer.
