I spent my formative years in Chicago. We call snow “white $#!+” and I had my fill of it when Ford was still in the White House. We (Tucson) had a really big snow storm on Christmas back in the 80s (87 or 88), snow on cactus did look interesting for about 20 minutes. Problem of course is it stayed most of the day. I’ll never understand why people like snow, very grateful my family chose to get out of the snowbelt when they did (right before Chicago had record snowfall 3 years running).
I think snow is wonderful if you don't have to live in it for months out of the year, every year.
When I lived in the foothills of Los Angeles county, I could jump in the car and get to the snow within minutes, if I wanted to. I'm now in North Texas, and although it snows here, we don't have so many snow days, nor does it ever accumulate to levels high enough, to ever be a real bother.
