I have a lot of relatives in New England, and we talk on the phone several times each week.  It’s nice to keep in touch that way, we’re a close-knit family.  It seems that lately every time I talk with one of them they are telling me about how much snow they’ve been getting this winter!  It sure makes me glad that I don’t live in New England right about now!  I can’t imagine having to deal with clearing off windshields and digging out the car that often to get to work or go shopping!  I’d want to hibernate and not even go out!
