How does life in Dayton, Ohio, compare to life in Costa Rica?

After moving to Costa Rica, I am back in the USA visiting family and friends.

Raindrops

If all teh rain we have had in the past few days had been snow, we would be buried by now with drifts as high as the garage door! But it seems we are in a warm spell, and instead of winter January has turned to spring... I wish we could see more snow.

The weather reminds me of Monteverde, with the cold rainy season that dampens clothes and spirits and makes drying laundry nearly impossible. It reminds me of the puddles that line my street, how the rain drums on the metal roof of our little home. It makes me wish that I was back in the humid wetness of Costa Rica, and not in the nasty cold wet of a sleepy Ohio winter.
But what can one do? My Mom still needs my help as she continues treatments, and my hubby is still working away from home.

I am better here with company, with family, than alone in Costa Rica right now.
