Nope.  That's not how it is here in the north.  We outdoors-people also look
forward to the winter.  We get out the snowshoes, skates, skis, winter
climbing gear, and sometimes slide in a kayak down the snow-covered hills.
I think all that compares pretty favorably to Red Snapper season.  In
addition the summer weather is often low-humidity and 80 degrees F.  Why
would anyone want to live in Texas or Florida? :)
