If you want to see snow like you've never seen, come to Florida.  Our ski
resorts are not crowded -- no long lift lines.  For those of you looking
for peace and quiet, Florida has one of the smallest snowmobile to
population ratios in the US.  Igloos built here in December will look
exactly the same in July. You can go for days and days and never meet
another person on snow skis, or snowshoes for that matter.  You might think
the Northern Lights are impressive, but you haven't lived until you see
Miami under a blanket of freshly fallen (Florida) snow.
