Ash – I don’t know what it is. I lived in NY for years. I can wear sweater upon sweater and never be warm. I have really very low body fat. Maybe that’s why. Other than that, maybe there’s something wrong w/me. I have low cold tolerance. I even get cold here. My brother LOVES being back east. Most of my family is still there and they will NEVER move here. All I can do is go back and visit and I agree. Nothing beats Christmas w/snow and a fireplace. I cherish going there for the holidays. I tough it out while I’m there and I can manage the cold for short periods of time. Also, I think I have S.A.D. so the gloomy days are a major downer for me. I do miss the fall, also.
