Default Be Grateful Your In The Villages

That should read be grateful your WARM in theVillages! I'm envious of all you fortunate people in the Villages. It's freezing here in Saratoga, NY in sub zero temps and it has been snowing for 24 hours nonstop. The NYS Thruway is closed the entire way between Albany and NYC. Even the dog doesn't want to go out.

My New Years resolution is to be in the Villages before next winter!

Same scenario in Detroit except our roads aren't closed. I am sick of it already and have 3-4 months to endure. Yikes.

Sounds like a great resolution. Yep, 2014 will be a great year for retiring and moving to our home in Collier.

Move as soon as possible. Home prices are climbing for both new and resale.

Snow removal is included in your amenity fee here!

We're in Clifton Park for the holidays. Heading to TV on Tuesday. I hope the cold weather doesn't follow us down!

I said this in Feb. after the winter we had in CT and I was here by August! (I don't make "New Years" resolutions because I never keep them but I was determined to keep this!) LOL
I'm watching GMA right now and SO glad I am not up there.

Well, obviously we're a lot better off than you weather wise, but it's currently 39* here with a high of 48* forecast or today. Not exactly what we call "warm".

Take care of yourself up there and be careful.

Really thankful to be here this year. Prayers are with friends and family up north. 22 below zero back home in Wisconsin Sunday and Monday nights. The Frozen Tundra is going to live up to it's name come game time Sunday.

GO PACK

I lived in Saratoga, NY for about five years. Coldest five years of my life! I will never forget a neighbor knocking on my door asking if I had seen her dog because the dogs were walking over the top of the fences because the snow was so high! Nor will I forget my car sliding out of the driveway because the ice built up over night... woke up to my car out in the middle of the street! Hurry down to The Villages. It may be a little cold here today, but I don't think I will find my car out in the middle of the street! Good luck... stay warm!

Sounds like a heat wave to me, lol. When we visited last February it dipped down to the high 30's at night but climbed into the 70's during the day. We thought it was glorious! We were wearing shorts but we saw people bundled up and wearing gloves in the afternoon.

You take care shoveling that sunshine!

It is 13 degrees and still snowing in Suffolk County Long Island. 8 more days and we will be back in TV. So looking forward to being back under the dome.
