This all is so funny...as I go through this every year!! Its real pretty here in Minnesota til January..then it starts to get ugly! And it doesn't pretty up again until July 4th!..Would never move from here though... My family lives here..including 3 grandsons..this is where I belong..That being said...I like LOOOONG warm trips! Negril will be the second vacay for me this year and I'm considering adding a third next year..LOL!
