Do those of you who live in areas where it snows think it’s odd or funny to see “fake” snow ********* decorations?

1 Answer

Answer :

When I lived in California, and then Nevada it felt out of place to me. Now that I have snow where I live, it just seems like extending the outdoors indoors. I laugh though, at those people who hang “icecicle” lights on their house, and they get frozen inside of enormous real ice spikes. Lol
