In response to Anthony DiSipio, who doesn’t understand why anyone likes cold weather and shoveling snow (“Speaking of Shoveling Snow … Odd Jobs Back in the Day,” 1/31), I love winter and shoveling a limited amount of snow. (Notice the word limited.) Let me elucidate.

Winter and snow are a delightful diversion for me. I enjoy seasonal change in weather. I’m not talking about climate change, which I find distressing. I’m not a snowbird; I enjoy living on Long Beach Island during the off-season.
