YES, YES, YES.... no, no, no

Finally! - Whoever is responsible for the weather (St. Peter for me - but LEO.org tells me that that does not resonate in the US) was merciful and sent some snowflakes in our direction. Yesterday afternoon and way into the evening we got a good layer of snow. Park Avenue, Broadway, taxis and limos: all and everything covered in white. While enough to bedazzle at least me for a little while, the press did not seem to notice much (contrary to the coverage of the snow-less January - see for example here)!















The nasty surprise this morning: Snow had changed to rain mid through the night and had not only melted most of the white but left puddles everywhere making one wet from top and bottom. Oh well. If this is winter in New York...?

Anyway. One question keeps nagging: was this it for this year or at least for the days that I'm still here? It remains to be seen...
