And one of the best places to find that warmth during the long months from December to April is in the presence of someone else. And there's lots of places to do it. One of the most popular of all wintry dates is skiing—and other forms of & snow-related activities. Some of the benefits of skiing include the long, slow rides up the SKI lifts which lend couples a chance to get close and maybe share a kiss or two. A word of advice: when riding the ski lift never touch anything metal with your tongue, results of such disasters can be seen in Dumb and Dumber and A Christmas Story. So keep the tongue only in and around the mouth of your date at all times during the ride.) (A further word of advice: try to make sure that there isn't a bunch of kids in the cart behind you. This could lead to some embarrassment and harassment from the generations not yet interested in the magnificent world of sex and dating).
