Actually, I don't because I have spent most of my adult life in warm or mild climates. But often I read here that someone has moved to a warmer climate because they do not like living in colder regions. I don't really "get it".
Sure, it's cold outside in the north but you have heat in the house, the car, and any businesses you might need to go to. Plus, you have nice warm clothing to keep you toasty warm. We have climate control in our cars and homes in the South as well, and we dress for the weather, too.
Sure, there is snow shoveling to be done (just as we have far more mowing and hacking back of tropical growth, and believe me that is a miserable job too). As we get older and can't handle shoveling snow or mowing in the heat, one can either pay for someone to mow or shovel snow, or one can live in a condo I suppose. I really see no difference here from living in the south.
I just don't GET it. So, on this hot, hot, hot July 4th I thought it might be entertaining to start a thread for people to complain about why they don't like living in a cold climate. Have at it!
