Why Do I Live In Illinois?

Every winter I ask myself, why do I live in Illinois? Why do we put up with the worrisome tornado-prone springs, the sticky, sweltering summers and the miserable frigid winters. Autumn is generally the only decent season in Illinois. From November to April landscape is bleak and gray and depressing.This time of year the temperature ranges from low to below teens, with wind-chill below zero. We’ve scraped ice off the car windows every single morning, my Weenie dog has worn both her sweater and her little red coat with the fur trim, to work everyday. I’m sick to death of winter already and it’s still January…we have at least two months of miserable weather left to endure.

Every winter I ask myself, why do we live in Illinois? Why not look into some Florida or Georgia land for sale?
I guess it’s because my entire family lives in Illinois. For me, family trumps crummy weather.
