Must be my thin blood after living so long here in the sunshine state. ![Smile](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Actually, I take back what I said before.....I was MUCH colder when I was in Detroit, the same trip as I went to Johnstown, so also in February and we did a trip round to Niagra!! It was pretty awesome to see it mostly frozen though....
I have done a fair bit of travelling around the US over about 6 trips there. I cant wait to get back again. I want to see more of the West half of the Country.

Ha! I did a road trip that took me from Decatur, Illinois over to Virginia...then back up to Kentucky. Then took a drive to Hot Springs, Arkansas....then up to Fort Wayne, Indiana...then back to Decatur!!

The mountains of West Virginia and Virginia were spectacular!! Went through that part in October just as all the leaves had changed....like nothing I grew up with over here in the land of the ever green Eucalyptus!!
