I hate snow now

There was a time when I loved snow. I would get up early and walk around CF looking for shoveling jobs. Then when all that wound down it was off for sledding , snowball fights , etc. I remember some of the best sliding was on cardboard sheets and cafeteria trays. I had a sled but as I got older the sled was too small and the cardboard was way faster! I skied until I was 45 years old. The more snow the better and there was no kind we couldn't ski. From fresh snow to packed powder to icy as it gets we would scream down the steepest slopes.

Now fats forward to the last ten years. The only thiongs I do with snow are a PITA. Shovel snow. Brush off the cars. Drive slower. No place to park. Wet , dirty feet. I mean there just seems to be no good use for snow once you get a little older.

I will say that I still enjoy the beautiful landscapes you can see when it snows. An think as hard as I can , nice scenery is about the only thing good I can come up with now when I think about snow.

Anybody else at that stage in life where you have no use for snow at all?
