Having grown up in northern Michigan, I once embraced winter’s freezing temperatures from -17 to 5 degrees. My childhood was filled with snowmobiles, ice fishing, and building snowmen and snow forts. But after moving to Alabama in 1996, I experienced the opposite climate – summers that nearly “melted this Eskimo.” Now, after almost 30 years in the South, I’ve completely adapted. I believe I’d turn into a popsicle if I ever returned to northern Michigan, at least for the first few winters. While I loved the cold as a child, I’ve come to dislike it as an adult.
