You wanted THIS?

I thought it was rather funny and curious how several folks last week were lamenting how it "didn't feel like Christmas" with the unusually warm temperatures. I just got back from my Stewart's coffee run, and winter has officially arrived here in the mid-Hudson Valley. There is a crusty inch of snow, covered by a slick layer of ice. Our short, dead-end road can easily be navigated on ice skates. Shoveling this "snow" is a futile exercise, only to reveal a nice sheen of ice underneath. What. You wanted THIS? I'll take 60 and sunny in December. You want your holiday chill and ice? Go to Maine. Or now? Just come to Poughkeepsie!
