Wow...that's hardcore! |
I was born and raised in MI and this is sooo true. I love it! |
Thats funny! I saw something similar for New Englanders too! I was laughing so hard bc it was sooo me! "OH wow.. its 40 in january... its a flipflop day!" Yesterday it was 61, windy and raining and I was sweeping my patio in a tanktop! Thinking how nice it was that all the snow melted on it and I should put out my patio chairs now!" HAHAHAHA |
LOL...I'm in Michigan and it's cold!! Maybe I am just a Californian in my heart!! |
I love it:thumbup: Colder the better more snow even better!!!!!! We just had snow yesterday and it was wonderful,you could smell spring in it.Today it will all melt:( |
That is too true!!!! Though I still think it's darn cold here and I'm so, so, so, so, so, so, so sick of winter!!!!! Have a great time at Great Wolf. Traverse City is fabulous anytime of the year!!! |
My friend, who was born and grew up in Norway, sent that to me this morning. To him, Michiganders are "winter wimps". I laughed when I read it because last week I was driving around town with the window down in the car thinking what a beautiful spring day we were having. It was in the 40's. |
If it gets below 70 I'm wearing a jacket :rolleyes: |
