Walking to work when its frosty and foggy.  Yellow leaves peaking out from the fog. Sheep bleeting in the field.  Beautiful!!

I love this time of year when its frosty, but not icy yet. Great walking weather!
I've never gotten food on my underpants!

Sounds great to me. It seems no one I ever talk to, here or in the States, seems to share my overly joyful feelings about cold weather. Nice to know someone else exists with the same feelings. I love frost and snow, but I'm not crazy about ice.

Sound gorgeous! :)

I don't mind cold weather. I don't really mind any weather except really hot/muggy. I really don't want to be sticky.  :P There is something very refreshing about a cold, brisk day and I love the autumnal tree changes we have right now.

Me too. I hate being sweaty and gross just from walking or sitting outside. I also think you can't beat October and early November for beauty, unless there is snow or an ice storm.  ;D

Boyfriend (that I haven't seen in 91 days. Not that I'm counting or anything) is landing at Logan on Wednesday night.  ;D :D :) :-* [smiley=guitarist.gif] [smiley=2thumbsup.gif] [smiley=smitten.gif]

I think TamaMoo, Courtney, and me will be the only ones on this board to embrace snow in the UK again this winter!

Snow is one of nature's ways of slowing us down for a few moments. :)

I have been looking forward to snow. Just as long as it doesn't mess me up for travelling!

A friend of mine from school moved to Colorado after graduation (we grew up in Indiana) and she has had 10+ inches TWICE already. Another friend moved to a different part of Colorado and she has had 20+ inches once. A couple days ago on FB, it seemed everyone was posting about snow in Ohio, Michigan, Chicago and Wisconsin. I've decided I am going to become a nomad and just wander the world according to where the snow is.

Right!  I will add you to the snow-lover's list, but will pray it only snows so as not to interfere with your travel plans.  :)

I'm with PB on this one! It may snow all it likes well before or just after I travel!  :)
