so any of the other ppl buried under snow want to move south with me?
 

good grief it just keeps falling here in PA... i say this every winter.. and i still end up staying here.. but.. dang it! i want to move south or south west! i am so tired of snow and cold.. and we still have about 2 months left of it..:mad: i am pretty sure i can get my wife on board.. and the dogs well they really don't get a say in it.

Wow...south west...is that Vegas???:wink:

If you move out here keep your house in PA for the summers!! We are working on moving up north, I can't handle the summers anymore.

Well...Logan Utah isn't too bad in the summer.....right now the temp has raised from -12 to a balmy 3....

I'm in the South West.......of Ohio..:p We have new snow this morning and the Temp is 13.

I like winter cold as opposed to summer heat, though. I'd like to visit Southern US, but wouldn't want to live there. I'm a Buckeye...frozen on the tree..:cool:

ack! how can you stand 3f :eek: thats like instant eyeball freeze as soon as you step outside.... the year i spent in MN was like that though.. so cold it hurt to breath..

Whats the temp in Vegas????

Right now we are in the 50's.

Right after our wedding we went to Lake Navajo for a few days. I have the greatest pictures (the fires were going on around us). I'll start another thread with them, for some reason it wont let me post them on a reply.

I'm assuming you're by Lake Erie Punk? BRRRR! I was a Pittsburgher for 39 years. I've been in South Florida for 2 1/2 years. I don't care if I ever see another flake of snow in my life!

:trampoline::trampoline::trampoline::Dancing-Chilli::Dancing-Chilli::Dancing-Chilli: I love it here! Except for the cost of living LOL. But there's a price for everything.:D:D

Joelle - Isn't it humid there? How do you deal with the heat?

I understand. Truly I do:)

I'm in the South East... of New York! For winters, we're getting a mild one so far... fluries, ice and at most 3 inches of snow so far. Unusual for the area.

I'm not complaining about that. But... if it continues... we'll have droughts in the summer because the ground water didn't build during the winter.

I'd love to move. To a place that isn't too frigid in the winter, and to a place that doesn't know the meaning of humidity!!!;)

But... the winter is still young. I've seen blizzards in April so I put the shovel away until May:eek:

Take care and stay warm.
Cheers!
Niko:cool:

I am part of the small percentage of people with MS that are cold- intolerant. The heat does not bother me:confused: but the cold makes everything worse for me. Even if it goes down to 50 degrees here my symptoms are worse.:eek::eek:

It is really humid and extremely hot in the summer. Every day in the summer the high is 90 and the low is 78! It might vary by a couple of degrees but that's it. I adjusted to this pretty quickly.

What is really funny is to see people walking around with hooded sweatshirts on when it's 80 degrees!:D:D:D

This is my first winter with MS and this cold weather really is kicking my ****. I was actually looking forward to winter last summer when the hot weather was keeping me inside in the air conditioning. Right now it is 13 degrees here with a wind chill of -3. :eek: Where is it 65 to 75 degrees year round?

San Diego...so my Father said, but I think it's still humid.

*sitting here in my cowboy hat and boots* (j/k I don't own any)

Hey ya'll come here to the SW. Well, in the winters. Today it's in the low 60's and will go down to a chillin 30's tonight. The sun is shining today with only slight clouds. The humidity is so low that sometimes we get below freezing at night but no ice because of lack of moisture in the air.

*making room for my "frozen" friends to come visit.*

Yes! San Diego is the ideal. Inland is more humid - from my experience. But the closer to the ocean the less humid. Cost of living is high!

:( don't bother coming to north texas. we are under a winter storm advisory. blech. freezing rain..maybe some snow. blech blech.

ugh that is so true... gotta hate the April blizzards:Bang-Head:.. its this stupid lake it gets us in PA and the ppl in NY.. though i do know around the Buffalo area gets hammered way worse most of the time then we do...

i am in a little bumpkin town in Erie county but just in the right area to get nailed with the lake effect snow...

Don't move south right now. They are calling for ice.

I live in Arkansas. Can't get much further south. They were calling for ice tomorrow night. Now they are calling for it tonight. UGHHHHHHHHHH

Yuck Yuck Yuck.

I want a tropical Island.

DAY

Well, at least you get snow. I figure if it is going to be cold I want it to be pretty. Plus the snow covers up the litter.

My BF and I are butting heads on where to move. I want to move northwest(Montana or Wyoming) he's from Rochester NY (the other mistake on the lake)and says he will absolutely not shovel snow half a year (I have yet to see him shovel snow in 6 years). He wants to move way south, fine by me but I won't leave the house for half the year and he can deal with everything.

I will win. :grin:

I am up for a move to warmer weather....tired of the stinkin cold stuff...:Bang-Head:

Ya'll need to move to Georgia! Not near Hotlanta...no no....come SOUTH!!! we have plenty of houses for sale! Summers can be beastly, but that's why we have air conditioners!! :D

Sure can't beat winter time down here! Always keep short sleeves out 12 months a year and at least one pair of shorts!!! :rolleyes:

Swing on down to North 'by God' Carolina, PD. The Sand hills area here got a whopping 15... minutes of snow two days ago. One of the reasons my Dad loves this area. Really mild winters, but the summers can kill you.:o

---Bring some snow with you if you come.---:)

I say all of us Northeners move in with Joelle or Kayo!! Florida or Belize? I am sure they would LOVE to have us!! :grouphug: I feel the warmth already!! :D

I just moved back to south dakota from coastal washington and oregon, and all I can say is that the weather sucks no matter where you live, just ask a farmer.

we're having a heat wave here .. going to get up into the 20s tomorrow .. it's 13 now ... finally got to the double digits today!

so ya wanna see the tincondo??? yep, that's my driveway marker (sign painted like a quilt block)!

:holysheep:

Steer clear of Memphis. Today it sleeted and hailed half the day.

well punk, I live in oklahoma and we still get snow,but not as much as up north.
But I said today that I want to move to florida. My feet are not liking this cold weather at all. so what ya think,should we all pack up and move to florida??:OuttaHere:

We have lived lots of places through the years.
IF we could afford it we would be in Southern California for the weather.
I like Nevada. We were there for several years. Near Reno.
We are now in Florida. I find it relatively nice. Awfully humid in the summer, however, I don't know anyone who lacks air conditioning. :rolleyes:
I think if I could afford it, and had to stay in Florida, I would move to Key West. Beautiful. Hurricanes don't frighten me any more than earthquakes or tornados.
The key is to find someplace that you can be happy in.
One thing for sure, no matter where you move, you have to take yourself with you. Trite, but true. ;)

Yep, I'm pretty well sick up and fed with MI winters too. I'm in a holding pattern, but have chosen the greater Asheville, NC area as my final destination.

The cold and snow never bothered me a single bit when I could be out in it having fun and moving enough to stay warm. Nowadays, I have no love for this place, it's practically impossible to cross a parking lot when it's covered with snow, ice, chunks of re-frozen slush ridges, and people driving like tomorrow might not come.

Once I'm down there, if it's too hot in summer, I'll just go on third shift. But to be able to get out to go anywhere but home for most of the year is very enticing to me.

i have this feeling a little snow wouldn't bother me.. like a dusting now and then. no biggie.. but when you live in a place that on average gets around 120" of snow a winter.. just about any place with less snow seems like a better place to live.. lol

i have tossed around the idea of FL since i have family down there but i don't think i would ever be happy living so close to ppl.. i am sure FL has some rural areas but i have never seen them..

NV or AZ seem nice just have to take a road trip out there and see what looks good.. heck i may visit both states and say.. "wow this isn't for me at all, ill just stay put in PA" but ill never know unless i take a ride out there..

I have plenty of room, BUT, you have to cook, clean, and love cats:D:D!

Do take that ride, Punk! Don't miss those opportunities!

I've seen quite a bit of the SW and I tend to get seriously claustrophobic feeling because I am woods and water people. I need green and fresh water around me.

something else that i wonder is how the heck would me moving work with my health insurance.. id hate to loose what i have now since it is actually pretty good coverage..



hmm good point AMN... since i am also a very outdoors person and spend a lot of time in the woods or fields i wonder if i could deal with nothing but dirt and sand year round..

I was just thinking about Erie this morning. When I was younger my family had a trailer (camping) that we "parked" in Lake City. I remember the small towns around there called Fairview, Girard (sp). I spent many, many summers there. It was a really "rugged";) campground. Spiders everywhere in the restrooms, you had to climb up and down a mountain to get to and from the beach. I did get to be friends with a few locals though, which was great.

but ya have to be able to handle living alongside boa constrictors, wild cats, scorpions, tarantulas, and worse!

the weather's FINE (a balmy 75 at 10 am today)

think I'll go hop in the hammock, with an Anne Rice vampire novel...

later on, I'll go transplant some banana rhizomes, and maybe even move some stuff into my almost-finished, new house!

lol, it's so laid back here, we've been living in the GUEST HOUSE for two years...

it's Belize, what's the hurry, mon?

:cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

ahhh yes good old lake city... i know exactly what you are talking about having to climb a mountain to get to the lake.. i use to be in a band that had practice at the bass players house out there and they lived right on the edge of a cliff where if you had a death wish you could climb down the 50ft rocky drop to the lake.. what got me about the whole thing was.. there was a road leading right up to the drop and no sign or gate.. LOL not a good idea IMHO... but there are roads all over the place like that here... but as far as i know very few ppl have managed to drive off of them..
usually drunk if they did..:rolleyes:

Meh, if you prepare them well, they're all quite tasty!

lol, AMN, I *just* watched the CSI New York episode (downloaded, bless these internets!) where they munch out on tasty bugs.

I must admit, I SHUDDERED when one tech-detective thoroughly enjoys a deep-fried tarantula!

:eek: :p :eek:

wonder what was in the sauce?

:cool: :D :cool:
