I live in Cleveland and this is the first summer in many that have had more than one or two days over 90.

Not originally from here, I hate the never hot summers, the locals hate warm/hot weather and thrive on the snow.

Last I saw the whole property was for sale for about $6,000,000: http://www.silohome.com/
The best part... It comes with its own airport runway and decommissioned missile silo.

from our pipestem so he can get out of the house and away from his family. My wife and I both have Jeeps and don't care whether the street gets plowed or not. We also live in one of those neighborhoods with the sidewalk on one side of the street. We're on the side without the sidewalk, shoveling responsibility, and dog poop. We have plenty of supplies and Ales to shelter in place thru all Northern VA storms.

Today, I am leaving shortly for a going-away BBQ outdoors, where I was volunteered to run the grille. No amount of lemonade or Ales will save me. I'll remember the snow and ice fondly.

I get depressed even thinking about getting up and scraping the car windows at 4:30am and sliding to work.
