What do you like to do during the winter?

I feel like winter is such a boring time to me.
There isn't much going on around town.

Then you have people who feel like they can't leave their house and go anywhere with you because "it's too cold outside" 🙄
As if jackets and pants don't exist...

What I mean is, there are festivals and events during spring, summer and fall, but nothing going on in Winter, especially [i]after [/i]the holidays have passed.

I'm gonna have to start giving myself traditions, or join a "winter club" or something 🥴

Here in Southern Florida we have street fairs, art shows, classic car shows almost daily. Everyone is here for the winter and looking to occupy their time. The average temperature here is 80° F. We have all the doors open and letting the breeze off the Gulf blow through the house. It definitely beats having to run the air conditioner.

@nedkelly That's not to bad. 🙂 Which one of the two would you like to have?

@Musicman The little XU1 is extremely fast and very nimble, here is a you tube of Bathurst 1000, a brilliant track and extremely difficult - have a look at American Darrell Waltrip Bathurst V8 Supercar Hotlaps
