Snow -- No Snow

We went away.
We slipped out just in time and headed south.
We arrived in Miami the day before it began to snow where we left.
Up there is snowed a lot.  Then it snowed again.
And again.

We missed the snow.
Well, really, the snow missed us, I didn't miss it at all.

It is dark out now, but I can see the lights on the causeway.
I can look to my right and see the city, to my left is the bay.

Miami is a very different culture than Boston.

Boston values intellect, tradition, hard work, and now, innovation
       (and football -- Go Pats!)
Miami is international, Latin, colorful, sensual, banking, big deals, big boats
Big parties

Bostonians can give you a knowing smile
In Miami they laugh out loud

Who is better?
Depends upon where you were raised, how old you are, what your temperament is, how much money you want to spend, where you come from, and how comfortable you are showing off your body.

Miami is warmer.
That's a big plus in January.  Not so great in July.
