Obligatory post for obs purposes to say its a bright & sunny 25 degrees this morning, still about 3-4" snowcover in the yard
It is amazing up there, congratulations on the business move and the success. My wife would never let us move from somewhere not far from here, but I've been toying with where I'd want that second place to be. It was FL before, and to be honest, these winters have made me care less and less about snow thanks to the repeated screw jobs... but we're all weenies at heart.
The other place I'd consider is out near Denver in the northwest hills - Black Hawk or somewhere at some higher elevation where snow is more frequent but there are plenty of sunny days and its 20 degrees warmer 2 days after snow.
