OK, this one is so common that I almost forgot it….for those raised in areas of the country where it snows in winter, the holidays simply do not seem the same without snow on the ground. In fact, for some individuals, without snow it simply is not a holiday time.
As an individual who was raised in Iowa, snow on the ground was certainly common during the holidays. In fact, I can’t remember a Christmas without snow on the ground, the temperatures below freezing, and the furnace working overtime. And, now that I am living in a more temperate climate where (at least at this time) we do not have snow on the ground, I can fully appreciate the feeling that it simply is not the holidays without snow.
