Do you like snow?

**CagneyDog** · 02-12-2006, 12:49 PM

I hate it. I can't stand winter, it is such a depressing season

**Karen** · 02-12-2006, 01:14 PM

I love snow! In a few minutes, I will be out to begin shoveling!

I like snow.
I like shoveling.
When it snowss, everything looks clean.
When it snows, a parking lot suddenly looks like a field.
You can make snow angels, snow men in some kinds of snow, build forts, etc.
When it snows, it is easier to see the tracks of wild animals and birds.
Everything is quieter when it snows, except the occasional scrape of plow and shovel.
The trees become black lace against a white background, with snow edging the patterns.
When it is snowing, there is NO POLLEN to worry about!

Skiiers can ski, children can sled ...
Hot chocolate is even batter when you've just come in from shoveling.
If you fall down, the snow cushions you in the way ice never does.

There is a sense of being at the mercy of the weather - suddenly you surrender stressful attempts to control everything around you, because you cannot. Just relax and watch the snow falling.

The world is calmer when it snows.

It's pretty and all. But it's not fun to be in.

mainly because my golden dog loves it!! he could run around..in, under it for 24 hours! yesterday he was running, eating snow at the same time..

I am so happy when my pets are!

also a snowflake lets you watch it floating down in air into your hand & melts gently... they glitter the streets, calmer, peaceful than raaaiin (which soaks you immediately) and how snow makes the world soo white, sparky!

snow helps me when being somewhat depressed, you get your butt up, shovel, dancing & wiping snow off your car, and roll, laugh with your doggie!

oh and like recently, you walking-cuddle with good friends outside..we were giggling at how cold we are! smashing each other with snowballs, there's no other weather we can play with..

maybe I'm baised because how I looove cold too but it makes me feel so pretty.

Jen, I didn't know which to vote for because I do like it when it snows on the weekends.

When I don't have to go anywhere and my house is stocked with plenty of food I think it is beautiful. The dogs love to play in it and it makes me smile to see them having fun. Of course snow during the week is another story.

I hate shoveling and so does hubby. Fortunately several of the neighbors have snow blowers and one of them usually helps us out. We were planning to get one this year but the season was so warm hubby never got around to it.

I like to look at the snow, I hate the cold wind and ice that come with it though.

I LOVE SNOW!!!!! And Karen has covered the reasons why. I love to walk in the snow all bundled up.....I am so homesick!!!!!

**Barbara** · 02-12-2006, 02:16 PM

I love snow but we had it since November now and I just traded it for the Pacific ocean ( of course I traded with Edwina's secretary

)

**jenluckenbach** · 02-13-2006, 09:11 AM

I thought of another thing that bothers me about snow.....attempting to walk without killing yourself by slipping.

But I will agree with the blissful quiet after (and during) a good snow.

**Randi** · 02-12-2006, 02:43 PM

I love to walk in a thick layer of snow - preferably in the nature, and I love seeing it falling gently, but once the salt is on and the snow machines are coming, it's not so pretty anymore.

**catnapper** · 02-12-2006, 03:12 PM

I LOVE snow!

~I feel like a kid again, especially when I too get to have a snow day
~Miss Nicki feels like a puppy again and she bounds through the snow
~Everything is so white, clean, peaceful.
~If you take a walk in the snow, you are dumbfounded by the quiet silent world around you
~I like the nip and chill.... sitting in the house watching the snow fall while drinking cup after cup of hot tea.

Absolutely LOVE snow!!

I love everything about it, it's beautiful and it's so peaceful and quiet out. I love to shovel, I love to go out and take a walk in the snow, I don't mind the cold either as long as I dress properly. I love to get all bundled up and be outside in the snow, go shopping or go sit in a coffee shop when it's snowing or even just staying inside all warm and cozy at night, perhaps taking a nice bubble bath when I come inside. It's great!

It just makes for a perfect day for me. It just makes me feel so happy. It could stay like this all year round and I would be one happy person.

I didn't vote 'cause I'm in between...I hate snow most of the time, especially if it's just a little bit, but I love snow if there's a lot and we can have snowball fights!

**K9soul** · 02-12-2006, 09:01 PM

I enjoy it partly because of its beauty, the excitement of the "storm" (I'm a weather fanatic), and because the dogs love it so much.. Here in MN, it's going to be cold no matter what. So it can be frigid day after day with no snow or it can snow and add some beauty to winter, so I prefer it.
