I moved to get away from the cold

Humble Home.
I was raised in Winnipeg I decided to leave as soon as I could. At 25 I moved to Toronto. Much better weather in Toronto One can even grow a variety of plants.
At age 40, I moved to NYC. Now I can grow flowers right up until December (winter pansies). In March, I can start to grow primroses or pansies.
I have not had minus 20 since I left Canada. Yeah. It is not as cold in Canada as it was in the 1960's. But it is still old. It is also very expensive to fly away from Canada for a winter escape. However the free medical is nice when it's available.
Barry's Response - Would you like a hospital stay to go along with that icy sidewalk? It's a free bonus.
Thanks for your story, Sparks.
btw, when the Jets play the Rangers, who do you cheer for?
