Do you like cold weather and the winter?

I mean I like being able to see everything, but I will miss being warm pretty quickly LOL
 
Just got our first accumulating snow (just a dusting) here in South Central Illinois on November 10th. But it is forecast to be back over 70 degrees fro daytime high by the end of the week.

We just got a few flurries and a very light dusting on outdoor furniture.

But it's super cold!
 
I enjoy hikes in local forest preserves on lightly used narrow pathways .... in temps below freezing when bugs, heavy undergrowth, and mud are no longer an issue, though I seldom venture out in single digits or colder.
