winter

Skiing was above average for this time of year - it was affordable and a short drive, plus lots of sunshine.

This is hard to believe, but I bought a snowblower in Wilton, NY that has become the running joke every winter.

Come on folks!   Sing along!!    (this goes to "Winter Wonderland") Welcome folks---to my Yule Blog You can watch--our  burning Yule Log, But make no mistake, the fire is fake it's an  artificial wonderland...

Remember when we were kids?  As soon as there was a fresh snowfall, we'd go rummaging through all the closets looking for old hats, scarves, carrots--and then shlepping everything out into the snow to make the next great "sculpture".

We’re all used to snow here but we know Buffalo has it much worse. A storm yesterday dumped at least 19 inches closing a ten mile stretch of the Thruway (I-90). People have been trapped on the road in their cars for nearing 16 hours!
