Really, I do. I was born and raise up in the mid west where there were weeks where the temperature never got above 0° and the snow was often waist deep to a tall Indian. I hated it! But I just thought that was the way things just had to be, and knew no different.
Then I joined the Navy and one year I spent Christmas in the Phillipines (where the Christmas greeting is " Maligayang Pasko") and realized that there truly was a God and I DID NOT have to freeze suffer from November to April. Temporary insanity took me back to Indiana for a year but halfway through my first winter I decided enough was enough and rejoined the Canoe Club, and since then have been warm every winter except a three year period when I was stationed in Roanoke, VA.
There is a whole lot I dislike about the South but the weather sure isn't one of them. I heartily recommend it as a place to live.

Been a long time since I haven't run the ac at Christmas.
