So I admire the folks who endure Michigan winters. But have no desire to join them.The weather is much more reasonable around metro Detroit. The last couple years, I haven't used my snow shovel or "snow sneakers" at all. I put the snow tires on the car, more because the cheap, steel, rims the snows are mounted on are preferable pot hole sacrifices compared to the $450/ea VW OEM alloys my summer tires are on.
That being said, the scenes in "Fargo" where there is no horizon, because the land is white, the sky is white, and the air is white, are very familiar to me.
