I'm in Massachusetts....my Australian nephew came to visit and was disappointed with the lack of snow when he arrived. Nemo arrived over the weekend dropping 2 - 3 feet depending on the area.....he's happy....even after shoveling out his grandmother - which took a good long time. Now he's off sledding.....did I mention he is 28? Personally I enjoy the snow...........as long as I don't have to go anywhere. It's pretty. Making snow angels is fun and so is sledding. It's doing all the stuff that adults have to do regardless of the weather (like go to work and drive in it) that makes it nasty.
