But I remember once back when I was going through chemo (I was about 4 or 5 at the time), we were down south and the city we were in pretty much came to a standstill from a light snow. Â Some people were complaining loudly in a restaurant about the "awful weather" when I decided to ask "Why doesn't the city just plow the streets?". Â I was told they didn't have one, and I innocently replied "Oh. Â Why not, is this town too poor for one?".
Took me another 5 years before I figured out why everyone was laughing so hard (and why I got a free dessert for being "so cute"). Â I honestly had no idea that winter wasn't the same everywhere.
