“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
Geez, some of you are real grinches about snow.
I love snow, course I'd love it more if it stayed off the roads, but hey, nothings perfect.
I've lived in Florida and Louisiana - way to hot and the humidity will kill ya, and then there are the bugs, we won't even talk about those nasty things. Give me snow any day. Especially if it's deep enough to take the kids sledding and packing well enough for snow forts.
The only season I don't like is Spring because all it does is rain around here that time of year.

Snow on the roads is just about the best part!
