Btw I don't hate summer as much as I hate michigan winters. Least during the summer if its hot as fuck, I can get indoors, or roll down a window, or wear something lighter (can't exactly go shirt-less, someone might think I'm some bearded woman or something). Or most stores are AC too.
But in the winter, its cold, its wet, I gota wear crapload more, I gota shovel, I gota deal with god knows how many fucking idiots on the road thinking their new SUV can drive on ANYTHING at high speeds when they didn't even change out the default tires, as well as trying not to track any shit into the house, or get my shoes all soaked or, or take 45 minutes getting ready for that "quick trip" to the store, or moving the truck from one side of the street to the other side of the street every single day a plow needs to come by, or have to figure where one of my kids disappeared in the back yard.
There's a lot of things you can do about summer quickly. I'd much rather get caught in a summer thunderstorm than a winter blizzard (had to hike thru one once in the wood, ain't fun when it covered a creek you weren't aware of)
But least in some parts they're pretty quick about plowing.
thats a road btw, and the camera became quickly covered in half an inch of ice soon as we got to the cabin from the condensation, was bout -10F that february afternoon, dropped to around -20-25 later that evening.
