 JW> -=> Quoting Charles Blackburn to Dave Drum <=-

 DD>> snow storms.
 CB>> being a brit i dont mind.
 CB>> i miss the snow, NOT the cold that goes with it :D

 JW> One becomes acclimatised to it over time. I have spent over half my
 JW> life in Yellowknife and -30 F doesn't bother me a bit any more but
 JW> anything over 85 F just saps the energy right out of me. I no longer

yea i know what you mean.. i don't mind the weather down here, it gets hotter, i get slower lol

but for me it's the humidity... I sweat like a pig and i can go tthrough 3 shirts before 9am some days.

I just wish it would stay 75-80 degrees have a bit of a breeze and not a lot of rain and i'd be happy.

 it's when there's no breeze that kills me.

 JW> wish to take winter vacations to places like Florida or California.
 JW> like I used to.
 CB>> i'm not a fisherman (too boring for me)
 JW> I used to be when I was younger. It's not boring when they're biting!

yea but you gotta get to that point lol

 JW> I live on the shore of Great Slave Lake which has a commercial
 JW> fishery and these days I buy from some of the local fishermen. The
 JW> cold water species here are lake trout, whitefish, grayling, ling
 JW> cod, walleye and pike. There are no bass or catfish in this part of
 JW> the world. There are no local sheefish or char here either; they are
 JW> only found further north in the rivers flowing directly into the
 JW> Arctic Ocean.

we used to have a trout farm up the road from where mom n dad live and we'd go up there every couple months or so was great.

i love cod or haddock witth my chips, but grilled trout is the bomb.
