Seriously Tom .......Amy, Andy, Allison, Todd (from Canada), and I are moving to your/our new farm. MAKE ROOM! Can't take the cold getting to old..

Call and let me know when arrangements are ready for our arrival but make it snappy pappy I'm not happy up here it's kind of crappy.

See Ya Soon,
Godfather.....Pete K.

Living in the North does make for some bad days for sure. The Southern heat can also be hard to handle Pete...Good luck!

Yeah but at least there is a lot of sun. That is the bad part. And when we get sun these days it reflects off the snow and burns part of our corneas I think.

Land of the Outcasts!

Try the SF bay area in California.

Fall - Turns chilly (under low 70's, high 60's), can no longer wander around in tank tops, shorts and flip flops. Also have to rake all those beautiful leaves that change from green to autumn red and orange.

Winter - Even colder, (highs in the 50's brrrrr) and have to drive with the convertible top up several days each month as it's raining, but no snow. First rain of the season can be tricky, all the oil comes to the surface and makes roads slick. We also get a few days of frost and have to cover some of our delicate landscaping. If we want to see snow, we have to drive four hours to the mountains to see it. Only ice we have is in the freezer.

Spring - Have to service the boat to prepare for the loooong skiing season. Also have to dig out all the tank tops, shorts and flip flops.

Summer - Only a couple of drops of rain all summer long. We get a few summer days over a hundred but very little humidity. Getting all the beach sand out of your clothes and shoes can be tricky. Have to get up early in the morning to find the glassy water on the lake for barefooting.

LOL, to many snakes to list, last count:
26.49 BRB
20.21 BCI
And those are only the breeders

lots.lots.lots feeder mice and rats

That sounds a hell-of-uh lot nicer than my area! We get lake effect snow, rain, ice ect. ect. it SUCKS! I'd love to have your rotten climate problems, I'd be outside every day (even though I work out side already!) if that makes any sense...?

OH and ......Have fun Pete!!

yep, SF is second only to Fresno...

Then you all need to come down to sunny so. cal

The L.A. area has nice weather most of the time.

I also live in the Northeast. Pocono Mountains of Pa. I really hate it. I dont hunt, dont fish, dont ski, hate the cold, the snow, and the ice! Im in the wrong friggin state for sure. However, I cant go no place. I have a son that is here that I cant go without seeing (he lives with his mom) he has to stay here for the Drs that he needs in this area. If it wasnt for him, I would be in South Carolina. They have the change of seasons, but its not drastic.

I agree. I moved from New York to South Carolina...best thing I ever did!

Amie

are you crazy, it gets hella cold in south carolina. I had to move to sw florida to get away from the cold. Went back to visit 2 x-mas's ago and it was 11 freaking degrees when we got out of the car. The bad thing is that it was 72 when we left sw florida so I was wearing a tee and shorts. now that was a rude awakening.

Various Ball Pythons, boas, dogs, cats, fish, an amel tiger retic female, a couple sulcatas and a few other odds and ends.

a BAD dog is MADE not bred, support the American Pit Bull Terrier as the greatest breed of dogs on Earth!!!!!

>>The L.A. area has nice weather most of the time.

True but then it only rains maybe 5 days a year and I need those barametric drops to help get the boas in the mood.

I love the rain when it does come, almost every male boa is riding the female.

it was that freak'n cold, you surely wouldn't be riding a lawn mower plowing snow, because more than likely the mower wouldn't start! Also temps in the -20's plus the negative wind chill factor you wouldn't survive long....unless you had super-natural powers? But then if you had super-natural powers you wouldn't be wasting them on plowing snow sooo.... what the heck! You'd be raising Boas....still!
just kidding with ya!!!

Come on down Pete, it'll be like old times. You got to learn how to breed more than just Boids down here though.lol...Seriously like I told you guys the other night come on down and get out of the cold for at least a while. I'll take you herping and we're only 10 miles from Key Largo. Hell it gets too cold even here for me in the winter [50 degrees is our coldest this year]. I'd much rather be tropical all the time......TC

I'm still waiting for the real winter in SWEDEN

HOLY SMOKES, I'D BE FROZEN SOLID!!!You VIKING GUYS ARE TOUGH!!!LOL...TC
