Winter, what do you like about it?

[Dozernut]

NO BUGS!
Working outside and not sweating so heavily that it runs into your eyes and burns.
Pulling the kids and grand kids on sleds behind the RTV.
The Holidays, brings the family together.
The beauty of a new fallen snow and the quiet.
Feeding and watching the birds.
Curling up next to the stove with a good book.
Not having to mow grass and have the Black Flies, Buffalo Gnats and Horse Flies eat you alive.
Felling trees for heat and wood working.
Did I mention NO BUGS!

A break from the heat!

Writing my name in the snow with out a pen or a pencil!
Other then that, when it is spring.

I started the thread about winter time peeves, and am pleased another member started this one, boy I can think of a LOT of things I like about winter:

No bugs outside, no pesky birds or varmints raiding my garden.

No sky-high A/C bills.

No scorching temps or high humidity or worries about getting sunburned or dehydrated.

No struggling to keep up with the 5 acre yard, or the 1,000 square foot garden, in heat and humidity.

I have a LOT of snow weapons, and I love to play with them.

Not having to keep up with the outdoor tasks give me time for woodworking, fixing things indoors, and best of all, spending more time with the wife and our four cats.

I can pig out and gain weight, because I know I will work it off when spring comes around again. Even have time to watch TV, something I rarely do the rest of the year.

Winter usually makes me appreciate summer more...and vice versa.

Best of all, winter makes me really appreciate being retired, no having to scrape the car, drive to work on the slick roads, and deal with the too-short days.

But sky high heating bills instead

At my age, in cold weather, I don't even try to do that because the ink tends to smear....:laughing:
