I used to complain about how rotten the winters were here in Chicago. Then after almost 40 years of searching for my biological dad (career navy man) I found him living in Duluth. My dad and I have this wonderful relationship now, but the weather up there is horrible! My god! I think it was about 3 years ago on Labor day and it was sleeting, cold and terrible blowing winds. Then last year or the year before we almost got snowed in our Easter. My dad says everyone's hardy up there and by gosh you'd have to be. I don't think spring comes till June and it can snow in Sept. On the bright side my dad is healthy as a horse at 75, and would never want to move away. Plus we've seen some very beautiful areas.
I think all the dark, cold days just get to all of us in the snowy states. I for one can not wait for some warm breezes and lots of sun, and warm sand under my feet again.
That's great that you have found your relationship with your father. Really, when it all comes down to what matters, it's family. Hell or high water...
