I know that endless cloud gets to people. My daughter lives just out of Chicago. I know that she tells me the east side of the lake gets weather influenced by the lake.<br /> Yes, the Arctic was "cool", but I only remember being cold once! My time in the Arctic was a major influence in my life. <br />The anonymous comments on the Christmas stuff just after yours are my daughter's comments. She's an excellent writer with a wicked sense of humor.Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996243850279671523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688207620251526295.post-82916132533004102622010-12-22T09:35:45.571-07:002010-12-22T09:35:45.571-07:00I'm familiar with SAD.

We lived for 17 years in West Michigan and the area we lived in was often considered the 2nd cloudiest area of the country; due to lake effect clouds from Lake Michigan. In the early 80s we went from the day after our Thanksgiving in November until the day after Valentine's day in February, with only one officially recorded day of sunshine. TV stations and the newspapers always had tips on how to cope with constant clouds and no sun.<br /><br />What a cool privilege to live in the Arctic when you did.PeterDeManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03669673190309431400noreply@blogger.com
