i love snow but hate the cold.....i snowboard all winter in VT and love it.....greatest rush i get from carving powder or landing a nice jump. the cold is getting to me as i get older and my body is becoming weak....o to be 21 again.....but hey....cant complain......i hope we get like a 24 feet of snow in the northeast...that would be awesome.....and also, i love the holidays....i too go all out for my family and this is the time of year where my bud purchases go down and thoughts of planting start...peace and pot
