Yes, we sympathize.
We're supposed to get 4"-8" of the fluffy white stuff today and next week the temperature is supposed to be in the single digits. I've always loved the San Diego area and have tried to talk the wife into selling the house and moving. I found a beautiful apartment in Laguna Beach about 1/2 block from the ocean, but she doesn't want any part of it.

Just remember we enjoy summer much more since we only get it for 3 months.

True, but I'd rather have warm fruit than cold nuts.

Tell the truth, you wish that you had our snow and cold temperatures so you could be out with the snowmobile and other winter toys.

I lived on the East Coast for 11 years --- did the 4 seasons....for all the snow bound folks... I feel your pain.
True, when the heat gets here... I'm like
<---- Get me outta here!
I guess having a Vette and being able to drive it pretty much any given day is good compensation in a way.
You know I got nothin' but love for my CF family
