Michigan Winter

I love Michigan in the winter. Yes. I am one of those people. Here's why:

1. No need for coffee in the morning. Just take the dog out. Your morning fog will lift immediately.

2. Bree, the Mal, and I can take nice looong walks in the cold, whereas, in the summer, due to her heavy coat, they must be brief and frequent. 

3. Snow. I love snow. It's beautiful to watch, and gives off ambient light...making the gray days of winter seem brighter. 

4. Snowmen and snow angels. You can't make those in Arizona.

5. Snuggling with a Malamute and reading a good book while there is a complete whiteout, is absolutely wonderful. 

6. Shoveling snow is great exercise.

7. The snow muffles sounds.

8. There is nothing better than a good swim indoors at my club, which has enormous floor to roof windows. 

9. Michigan has far fewer insect problems in the summer after a really cold winter. *exception for the U.P. Which has all of those nasty black flies and gnats.*

10. The grass doesn't need to be mowed.
