I miss snow. Snow was fun. I like lots of snowy activities but I'm going to say making snow angels was my favourite.

I just like to look out on the world while its snowing, peaceful and white.

I like snow when I don't really have to go out in it. The only thing I don't like is having to shovel it.

I don't know why snowboarding isn't an option on this poll.

Snowboarding is my answer.

Sleeddding!!!!!!!!!!

Yes that is the best thing, esp when there is a killer hill right next to your house, like there was at my house in Iowa as a kid

Video games aren't involved while playing in snow. That makes me sad :P

But snow is a great excuse to stay in & play them!

One that involves me staying inside. I hate cold weather and the snow.

Sledding. However, I grew up in Delaware.

Delaware, for those unfamiliar, is as flat as a countertop. We would sled on the hills where roads were built up for overpasses.

I love wandering through the city when it's snowing. Everything looks so pretty! I can't wait for this winter to get going to see all the Christmasy things in Manhattan!

And hopefully we'll be able to go upstate for a weekend, get a cabin, and go snowboarding. I want to learn sooo bad..

Writing my name.

I use to love tobogganing but I havent seen snow since I was a child. These days I'd probably stay inside.

Snowball fights. I don't like the cold, but I'm more than alright with a little icy violence now and then. Taking pictures is good too though.

Some of my favorite people at EoFF hate snow. This is a sad day.

I love snow. I love winter. My nick is a Greek word that means winter. It is my email and avatar everywhere I go on the internet. Kind of obsessed. You know, it's odd that I've never moved north to be near more snow. I should fix this.

Some of you have made me sad today. You know who you are.

I like walking around when it's lightly snowing. And I like walking around in freshly fallen snow, when it's all crunchy under your feet. Snowball fights are okay (especially at/after midnight when you're the only ones around) and snowpeople are cool too. But mostly just the walking around.

Of course the walking around is only great when you do indeed get indoors and have a nice hot chocolate or something. If you don't go out in the cold first, the hot chocolate doesn't taste as good.

Snow is best when 6+ inches are expected and it begins early in the morning, so people aren't foolish enough to go out and spoil the lovely white blanket on the road with tire tracks. It's best when you can go outside of your house in the early afternoon with three inches already on the ground and listen to the hush of the world around you. Snow is best when you can walk in the silent woods with only the sound of your breath and of the muted, feathery flakes landing in your hair. That's my favorite snowy activity.

Living in the south, we either get "snow" that is more of an icy slush, or none at all. Usually the latter, at that!
There was one time when it snowed, in 2008 I think, when me and my brother rode our ATV through a few fields, so I guess that'll be my answer.

Ohhhh snow at night. SO gorgeous. One of my fav things last winter was sitting in my window with the window open, smoking a bowl, drinking some beer, and watching the snow.

Getting a group of people together and building snowmen is the best. Especially when everyone tries to outdo each other and comes up with crazy ideas.

Love snow in general. I do not discriminate against any activities that can be performed in the snow. As they say:

"The yellow snow, is the gold. So put it in your mouth, or further south."

Skiing. I haven't gone skiing in years, though, which makes me a very bad Montanan.

I haven't seen much of snow. My family has a cabin in the mountains, so if I want to see snow in the winter I just have to drive a couple of hours, but I only do it like every other year. I've only been in actual snowfall twice. I don't really know how to function in snow. I just kinda like to... lay down and roll around in it. Maybe nibble at it a little.

I don't like snow. It's very unpractical when you own a car and live at the foot of a hill, especially when there's also ice on the streets. D:
As a kid I enjoyed winter a lot and I loved skiing during holidays, but nowadays I prefer to stay inside during winter and I avoid snow as much as I can. ;)

Personally, I'd like to hop in an AWD car some day and go drifting around roads covered in snow and ice. Sadly there are many things standing between me and that goal.

I want to get some backcountry ski's this year. I love snowshoeing, snowboarding, sliding, snowball fights, building snowforts, skating, playing broom hockey on the common and all sorts of other good stuffs in winter! Seasons would be so lame if I didn't have winter! It makes summer that much better!

grabbing a "no parking" sign and careening down the street like a little kid gets my vote.

I love driving in the snow. I keep saying that and someday soon it's going to come back to bite me on the ass when I get in a wreck because of it, but for now I still love it.

There's a hill near where I grew up that's curvy and steep as fuck. One of the most exhilarating moments of my life was starting down that hill in a snowstorm and realizing the brakes weren't going to do shit to slow me down. Slid mostly sideways the whole way down, and ended up bass ackwards at the bottom.

Also, FWD is best for snow drifting. FWD + snow + handbrake = snownut funtimes. Best used in empty parking lots, though, unless you really know what you're doing.

This is why I always drive a stick.
