During a big storm it would take days for the snow plow to reach us. What a massive waste of fucking time - remove the snow, and it returns again a few weeks later. Fuck that.

After going through this a dozen times each year as a kid, and once I learned that there are places where it doesn't snow... I promised myself I would live in a place where it never snows. Here I am in Northern California. It doesn't snow here, but snow is an hour away if I ever want to see it.

No wonder why California, Texas, and Florida have massive population increases every year.
