Bleak

I realized this morning that I've now spent 39 or 40 winters in the midwest.

This is the first time I ever remember the idea of one filling me with such dread and depression.

Maybe it's time to move to a more temperate region.

Suggestions?

San Diego.

Yeah winters can suck, but I've been to Florida, Texas, and other southern more temperate regions There is still no place like Good Old Wisconsin. Where cheese is food and so is beer. Beer and other alcohol is a lot more expensive other places.

If I put my beer outside here in western North Carolina, it wouldn't be cold enough. Bet you can get a Point Beer nice and cold out on the porch. Bet you can get a Point Beer.

Florida was OK. There are some cool bars there and decent selections of beer in some of the stores but the hurricanes sucked. Not only was there horrible devastation and a curfew for over a week, they made the liquor stores stay closed. No electricity, no air conditioning, 90 some degrees and 99 percent humidity and no liquor store to go to.

Oklahoma and the surrounding areas don't have bad winters. It's only 20 degrees out today but that's as cold as it gets. It was 72 degrees on Sunday. But prohibition didn't end here until 1952 so there are all sorts of weird laws and no good bars unless you go to the city.

It's all relative. Retire and spend winters where it's warm and summers in Wisconsin. That's my advice. That, and drink heavily...
