As much as I hate winter in lower N.Y and I know it is nothing like
where you are Bryan. I will just shut my mouth this year after seeing
what all those poor people on the gulf coast have gone through in the
last few weeks. And my brother can have his sun belt in Arizona too
with his 110+ degree summers. But it is a dry heat he says, right but
it is still 110+. "Doc"

Some say the secret to happiness is a well petted pussy,
some others say it is a well trained dog..........
right now a bag of Reeses Miniatures would go just right........;)

I honestly enjoy the North East, nothing compares to
the Seasonal displays we have here each Autumn
in the Hudson Valley.  Besides, ...... keeps the insect
population at a minimum.

Out my back door, the stretch of roadway heading out toward 'The 
Gunk'
Mountain becomes a virtual parking lot with visitors
from NYC -  up to Mohunk Mountain House
for Dinners & turn of the Century atmosphere.

Snow storms have taken on that flavour of enjoyment
I had when a Teen & Dad kept two Jeeps registered
for our driveway detail.  

Back then, we had REAL up to your belt accumulation
with drifts in the 5 foot range a regularity. 

I'd drop the plow & head down the drive around 2AM
& get the largest tasks done before going where no
passenger car had gone before - Dunkin Doughnuts
on Broadways - to watch the NYS Thruway plow rigs
roll in on breaks.

Nowadays it is a Condo parking lot in a small Collage
town that still has Hallowe'en Parades down Main St.
for the 'Little People' , making their way to the Fire House
just past Starbucks, where they're spoiled madly by our
Finest........... makes me almost want to be
a Parent........ almost.

First Blizzards - I clamber out to the Cherokee with the porch broom
in tow - clear off the glass & hood - dig out the drivers
door & fire the Big Six with a sly grin - knowing that
99% of the parking lot membership are shut ins until
late in the morning when the plow provides them a
drive space to aspire to as they wealds shovels and
sweat.

Me ? ........ yeah baby.........I'm long gone.......
 Lo Range and First Gear
puts the Black Panzer back in the game nose high
climbing out on street manoeuvres in search of a
'Liebensraum' perch at our local Dunkin' D - to 
watch the NYS Thruway rigs roll Main St. prior
to the morning drive contenders.

Living in the South all year round has been a thought,
but I'd have to surrender my Sweater collection &
my Massachusetts childhood roots wouldn't feel right.

They're running the Andy Griffith Show collection
all weekend on TV Land - cable - ,  ..... nothing
beats that Southern down home style........ 
weren't this s'posed located in South Carolina ?
