But look at the monthly averages , unreal !
But honestly I prefer some summer heat to make the pool and pool margaritas worthwhile at home ...

I'm not a fan of winter, but at least if you wear appropriate clothing you can be comfortable outside. Is there any way to dress properly so you can be comfortable outside in 125 degree Arizona heat?
A few options, but they aren’t legal. And when your old like me, engaging in any of them is likely an assault to the senses of just about anyone!

Born and raised in Michigan, I also once loved the snow, the deeper the better, but then commuting in suburbia to make a living ruined it ... until retirement ;)

Not a good idea to throw snow against the house...my neighbor did that, picked up a rock with the auger and punched a nice hole in his siding....

True I would rather have Snow than freezing rain and Ice. I don't mind shoveling snow out of the bed since the bed is pretty small. And I throw bags of Linen [table clothes and napkins] for work in the bed so a tonneau would be more of a pain when I throw the linen bags in the bed.See post 39 about the garage.
Sorry but I don't see flipping up a hard tonneau cover being more of a pain then shoveling. Also depending on the bags they may just stuff under it. I use a 1x2 with a screw acts like a hook to pull stuff out in the back. Also the biggest issue with flipping 2 of the 3 is walking around the truck to reach in and unhook the catch but that's on the second part the first can easily be reached from the tailgate opening. For me it would be a lot easier then getting rid of the snow that's in the bed. Plus it offers more areas on the truck for storage. It should also reduce labor intense every time in snow's. Honestly you should check them out at Amazon.

Again enjoy the season and Merry Christmas.

How about You buy Me a tonneau cover? :confused: I don't know about You but I don't have any Money trees growing in My yard. :confused: And like I said the bed is small and I don't need to shovel snow out of the bed for the bags of linen if I don't want to!!
