When I was a kid, I used to think that people were crazy to take off to
Florida every winter when they retired. The older I get, the more sense it
makes. I'm a big fan of winter -- until after the holiday season. Then,
everything is frozen up, there's no paddling (except in Florida) and I'm
counting the days until ice out.

If you think I'm flaming winter, you should see some of the columns I write
for the paper in the depth of the cold and dreary.
