I have plenty of friends who do not like the cold weather. If they could have it their way, the weather would be warm and tropical throughout the entire year. While I do enjoy the warm weather in the summertime, I don’t think I would like to live in a place that was warm throughout the entire year. I really like getting to experience different seasons, and I think that having a variety of weather makes you appreciate the other types of weather a lot more. I also think that certain events and occasions wouldn’t be the same if it was always warm (for example, having a hot Christmas Day).

Since I am a fan of the cold weather, I go to Denver at some point during almost every winter season. Not only is Denver a city that has a ton to offer, but by simply renting a car in Denver, I am able to drive up to the mountains and enjoy at least one day of snowboarding, which is one of my favorite outdoor activities. This year, I spent a total of eight days in Denver, and I ended up getting to spend a full three days in the mountains on my snowboard!
