Hi Cathryn,

One can move, but sometimes you move to other types of problems. While I loved living in Seattle when it snowed I couldn't park my car at my house because our driveway was too steep. So I had to hike up and down a huge hill. One morning it was 14° and as I was walking I could feel the skin on my face tightning. I thought about how that might be accomplished to be a permanent face lift. Then I got to the car, warmed up the car key with my lighter, turned the key and listened as the ice cracked when the door opened. That was the easy part. Waiting for the car to warm up enough to defrost the ice and driving in freezing rain was the rest. That only happened for about two weeks out of the year. I loved the snow and how beautiful it was, but it had its down side too.

Every place has an up side and a down side. Choose wisely which one's are most important.
