Heading South

We had sort of a farewell lunch yesterday with a couple who are leaving for Florida this week for the winter. They, in turn, had dinner with another couple of stay-at-homes the night before. I dubbed it the snowbirds farewell tour.

Another of our acquaintances is already tucked in Florida for the duration. Others will be joining them soon. We will not.

Yes, it will be cold for the next several months so we will dress accordingly like everyone else in the northeast. And we will put up with snow and whatever other winter weather comes our way.

Fortunately, we're retired so we don't have the hassle of commuting during bad weather. But we will be keeping our eyes out for any snow shoveling crews that offer (for a price, of course) to clear our driveway and walks. That will let us get out and about as necessary.

Otherwise, it's just a case of hunkering down and muddling through as best we can.

After all, 'tis the season to be freezin'.
