Yeah, February is a beatch. Most Canadians head south then, though I usually wait until May to trek down to NC.

Skiing, skating, stuff like that is fun. After a good snowfall, I take the boys out into the woods around our property and we find animal tracks in the snow and identify them. I do like winter, I just wish it was a bit shorter.
The other weekend we had a bit of snow, maybe 3-5 cm on the ground. I pulled my kids and their cousins around the property on sleds and an innertube attached to the back of my John Deere lawn tractor. Like waterskiing, only the frozen variety. Kids loved it. Then inside for hot chocolates by the fireplace (and rum n' eggnogg for the driver(s)).
