This is the first winter that I’ve lived on the East Coast in 10 years, and let me tell you, IT’S COLD OUTSIDE! I missed it though, the crisp air, the bare trees, the runny nose, the foggy glasses. Even though I prefer warm weather, living in Arizona makes me really appreciate the different seasons of the eastern climes, and the downright COLD weather we’re experiencing now.
My point? It’s December 8th, and it snowed last night! Technically, it’s not actually winter until the Solstice on December 22nd. Toto, we’re not in Arizona any more!
I definitely miss snow on Christmas but not the bone chilling winds of Minnesota & North Dakota!
Welcome back to the North(ish). Just remember how cold we were in MN and it will feel balmy. I hope you are well…and warm.
