Is there aesthetic value of snow? For example, would you enjoy looking at a large photograph of a snowy hill or something?

but snow is totally ugly in the city.

It can be, at least in pictures, but there are too many bad associations for me to like the sight of it in real life.

Yes, snow is pretty. Snow can make ugly things (e.g. industrial buildings) pretty. It is the snow that is the pretty thing about these otherwise ugly things, therefore snow is pretty.

I think that snow is pretty, but only when there are no footprints in it.

I think you must mean "snow fucking sucks." Otherwise, that last sentence makes no sense.

Sounds like somebody needs a nice day on the slopes -- smoking a fat one on the chairlift before happily hurling himself down the poweder-covered mountainside, and after a few happy hours in the sunshine sipping hot cocoa and rubbing his liberated feet by the lodge fire.

You forgot the part about breaking your legs.

Besides, I don't drink cocoa, and I don't smoke anything. Hot apple cider by the lodge fire might be nice, though.

Ugh, Vovat hot apple cider sounds stomach-churning!

I'd like to learn to ski. A skiing holiday would be great, except that I'd hate the cold!

All this ski talk is making me sad, had to for go my Vail trip this year. I do see Mammoth on the horizon however.

Hot Apple Cider VV? Doesn't that stuff pack some kind of cheap buzz in it?

That's an ugly myth, Carl. There's lots of sunny-day skiing to be had, sometimes in just a long-sleeved T. Nighttime skiing can get cold but not always.

COR is my fave Frank album to ski to.

It never seemed to for me. I'm not talking about HARD cider, y'know. Just plain old apple cider, but hot. I've always liked it, but I realize that my taste in drinks is different from that of the rest of the world. I drink pretty much exclusively sweet, fruit-flavored stuff. Well, aside from water, and I usually only drink that when there's no better alternative.

I love snow - I was just out shoveling and it's beautiful, especially when the trees are covered in a light sprinkling or hoar frost. Plus, it's only -7 so I could do it in a t-shirt, beautiful!
