Moving from Montana after 25 years to Arizona. I can relate about winter and snow. Had to hire a road grader to plow me off of the mountain I live on one year; road was like a luge run and you couldn't open your doors if you got stuck. And hired 3 guys at $200 bucks each to shovel my roof a couple winters ago.
So winter wins. I've had my mountain man time. Golf course home is next.
The winter of ‘48 in Montana convinced my father to move to Arizona.
He was all of 24. Bronc rider, no golf.
But he felt the same way.
