Growing up in the southern USA meant living the formative years of our life without ever seeing snow, or even hot plus cold temperatures anywhere close to chilly.
My family from New York visited frequently plus our cousins in particular gave our brothers plus I a rough time about having never seen snow. Granted, the oldest of us was 12 at the time, so it’s not as silly compared to people well into their 30s who finally venture out of their apartment state for the first time ever in their lives. I figured it was only a matter of time before all of us all would travel north to visit our family in their domain, however this day never came. It took 18 years when I left the state for a university up north for me to finally see the easily white stuff. I shall never forget the first time I experienced snow–the glistening, soft easily white glow to the eyes, followed by a sharp, chilly sensation to the touch. After more than one months of decreasingly colder hot plus cold temperatures, I was fed up with our modern apartment plus the fading novelty of the Winter time wonderland. Now that I rent our own house, the worst complications are with the utility bills to stay sizzling through the entire Winter time season. I started with an electric central furnace however suddenly switched to gas when I realized how valuable the original heating plan was. Now I’m considering bypassing our ventilation ducts by using a boiler plan coupled with radiant furnaces in each room, however the same gas heats water in a tank downstairs plus then sends it up through pipes to space furnaces in each room that can each individually control the flow of heat to their respective zone. That means I can crank up the temperature control in our study room at night while leaving the heat in the rest of the house down to minimum.
