“You never get a second chance to make a first impression.” -Will Rogers
I live down south and was in New England last week. I think the harsh winters make those people happier during the warmer months. Everyone (waiters, etc.) was nice and upbeat.
Only one thing worse than January and that’s the mercifully short February.
January is a tough month up North, but often it’s not perfect weather in Florida either. I think Southern CA is great weather in January BUT for the CA taxes and regulations.
