Not north of us. They were even debating whether or not to deliver mail in the greater Kansas City area, but decided to do so. Closer to the Iowa border, they decided to not deliver any mail.

That's funny, I was born in Evanston hospital, grew up in Chicago and then moved to Framingham Mass and lived there for 6 years. Then, I was driving through Missouri and ran out of gas and money. I have been stuck here ever since. About 35 years now.

Gotta love living in the Upper Midwest! It's been almost 25 years since it's been so cold!

Florida isn't such a bad place to be in the winter.....especially on the Gulf of Mexico.

I prefer the cold of winter to the heat and humidity in summer. At least you can dress up for the cold, and you wouldnt want to see me dressed down for the heat.

If I was living the best of both worlds, I would choose 6 months in Naples Florida for winter,
and the other 6 months would be in Colorado Springs. But I enoy being with family, and they are all
here in the frozen tundra of northern Illinois.
