When I worked in Hartford we played golf often at Lyman Orchards. Two beautiful 18 hole courses.

I miss the North less and less as time passes. I don’t tease family and friends when they are in snow up to their, well deep snow anyway. The Florida life is the one for me with only one drawback. Hurricanes! Up North we worried about NOTHING!

Yeah I miss all of that shoveling also. But honestly a cold crisp day in winter once in a while in Florida is okay. I enjoy when the trees change color even in Florida it's lovely. I enjoyed the best pizza in Chinese food in New Jersey and the fact that I could go to a shore even all year round being 10 minutes over the toms River bridge and have my own little walk on the boardwalk, have Rita's ices as well has all the small independent retailers that were n ot pushed out by big box stores

I was inside the Beltway working for snowmageddon. Closed everything down. Tried to make it home - made it as far as the Marriott by Andrews AFB..
