Way too cold!

Wisconsin is way too cold for me. Different strokes for different folks, though... I prefer the heat and am moving back to Florida in a month. Left here when I was 19, lived in FL for 12 years (didn't WANT to come back), been here 10 years (too long) and can't wait for the warm/hot weather! We had snow in Oct and it was still snowing in April. There were a few nice days throughout the winter but the days when it was so cold they had to close schools (didn't even make it to zero degrees actual temp)more than made up our minds to get the heck out of here. We'd much rather deal with an occasional hurricane (none last year...)than being shut ins in our own home for 7 months of the year. There's a reason they have festivals here Memorial Day - Labor Day, that's the only time you're guaranteed it will be nice out. Good riddance "frozen tundra", I'll be at South Beach with a margarita on the rocks! Oh, and I know housing is expensive, "through the roof", but we don't work at McDonalds and the comfort of knowing we'll never have to shovel snow or scrape the ice off our car at 5 am in sub zero weather is worth it!
