We have lots of "snow birds" who live here from fall, or January to the middle of April. To move here is quite a commitment. Some folks hate it, and often the husband loves it, but the wife misses the children/grandbabies too much.
We haven't had one of those bad wind days for several years, and probably not this year either, as the Sahara is sending us dust that makes the sky hazy, and my eyes somewhat itchy.
