Back in the early '70's I moved to Rochester, NY from the D.C. area. I did not even know what a snow blower was or looked like. Was I in for a surprise! Rochester received 144" of snow rather than the usual 72". Although the short summers were incredibly beautiful and enjoyable and I loved the finger lakes I tell people "It was the longest twenty years I ever spent in thirty months!" - the length of my stay.

manaboutown, I know its off the subject but could you post that black & white Del Webb story about the beginning of the whole planned 55+ Retirement Community? It would be best under the thread that is running currently called RETIREMENT. I remember it was in two parts and it told a beautiful story and I think it may help some people struggling with the thought of retiring. It was excellent and I'm certain you did it about 2 years ago.
Thany You Sir.
Back on the subject, just came in from helping to put up the Christmas Lights and am more thrilled than ever that we are here and not in the Northeast. The family is a little hurt that we didn't plan to go back in the cold for the holidays so we invited them here and got several takers at this point. They just have to get ready for the new normal. We're here for the winter, visiting in summer time up north.
