My boyfriend has cousins in Minnesota! His aunt and uncle just went to visit them for two weeks a couple weeks ago. For some reason, his cousins love it out there. Personally, I hate snow and the cold. I live in West Virginia near Hawks Nest State Park. So basically I live in the woods. Twice during this winter for got over 2 feet of the white stuff. I grew up in the capital city of West Virginia, Charleston, and we never get that much snow. It is very rare. We had two blizzards once. One in 1992 and then way back in the 70's I think, but do not quote me on that second one. The only other time I experienced tons of snow was when I took a road trip to New Mexico in March 2001. Against my parents wishes my friends and I (who were in college at the time) stopped to rest in Oklahoma. It was around 8pm their time and was simply raining. However, when we awoke the next morning at 4am to get back on the road. The entire state was shut down. The car was completely buried in the hotel parking lot. Apparently, while we slept the rain turned to snow and dumped over three feet of it in the area. After that experience, I will never go back to Oklahoma. Although, it was hilarious when we reached the border of Texas. Here was 4 of us bundled up in winter clothes and heavy coats and the people in the convenience store was like, "Where the Hell did you guys come from?" There was not a drop of snow on the ground there.

I agree
