    Do you like snow?
    Yes! I mean if I'm going to live somewhere where winter is cold & gray, might as well have snow to help make it a little prettier.

    Do you drive in it?
    When I have to I do it. Luckily I live in a place where roads get plowed pretty quickly.

    Do you ski?
    Yes, and I tried really hard to like it but I just don't. I did two years of lessons and kept going, but I have a lot of anxiety about it. I don't like speed and going down steep hills. If every run could be like the bunny hill I would enjoy it!

    I do love snow…. But I love the beach more!!! lol. So I like to go visit and then head back to the beach.

    I struggle with walking on a daily basis…. You’d think I’d have this down after 45 years of walking…. So skiing and dancing are out for me.

    Do you like snow? I love snow! But I hate the slush that follows in late march/early april. Mud season is gross lol.

    Do you drive in it? Yes, when needed I can, and do, but if I can avoid it I absolutely will because there are a lot of people who think they can still drive like maniacs and they make it so much more stressful. I was driving home yesterday from a weekend away and there was a semi-truck that jackknifed going up a mountain on the other side of the road. It snowed a lot the night before and the roads were semi-cleared, but still slick and prob icy. It's scary to see!

    Do you ski? Yep! Love skiing (downhill, never have tried cross country) and love being outside in the mountains and do it often. Not as fast as I used to be but that's ok. Still love it. :)

    I don't really like snow ....
    In Belgium where I live it doesn't snow often, and when it does snow it usually doesn't stay long. I don't mind driving through the snow with the car ....
    I've never been skiing ...

    Do you like snow? I hate the snow, pretty to look at as long as I haven't got to go outside. Luckily we don't get a lot of snow here, and when we do it doesn't last long before it rains again and turns to slush.

    Do you drive in it? I don't drive but my husband will take the car out even its its snowing, that's of course if he can get it out of the street. We live on a hill and its very rare they clear the side streets when it snows.

    Do you ski? Never tried it, and don't think I would as I hate the cold. Husband and son are interested in learning though.

    I love the idea of snow - haven't had a lot of exposure to it though.
    I don't think I would try ski-ing, nor driving in it. Maybe it's different if you grow up with it?
