HOLY FREAKIN COLD !!!!

Well, it sure got cold, this morning we had Temperatures of 28 Below Zero hers at our place in West Carthage,   Cold enough where I could not go outside as it would hurt me !!  I have COPD and Cold Air is not good for me anymore.
.
.
We also got hammered with Snow, some places got 50 inches !!!
.
.
This House in Lorraine which is about 20 Miles from us had the elderly couple trapped inside by 5 feet of Snow and had to be dug out and rescued !
.
I like living here in Senior Citizen Housing as I do not have to shovel or Plow Snow anymore !
.
.
.
Roads are open now after being closed due to snow drifts and wind whipped white outs !
.
.
.
Well, going to go turn up the Thermostat as right now it is 14 below zero outside at 7PM!!!!!

Wonder if Jack and Sherry are Cold in Florida ??
.
Stay Warm, Don't Forget our Vets !

Hell'o Old Man Winter

Well, Winter is here, Officially it does not start till December 21st but it roared in,   We went to Syracuse Thursday to the airport and picked our son Jonathan who flew in from Portland, Oregon for a Visit and to visit family !
.
We went to Art's Jug in Watertown and surprised his Mother, Nephew and Niece, his sister was missing as she was unable to be there, we had a good time !
.
.
This is my 5th year of taking the family out for Christmas,  I like it as we all can get together and no one has to clean up !
.
.
The above picture was a taken at the Olive Garden in 2014 when we were all together .
.
.
While here we got a chance to do a little playing and singing which was a nice evening and we even had some of the residents wander down to listen and we enjoyed ourselves !
.
.
We got hammered with SNOW and it is still coming down !!!!
.
.
You can tell it's "COLD" because I have to wear a Mask so I can breathe without hurting my lungs !!!
Everyone Stay Warm, and Don't forget our Veterans !!!

HELL'O WINTER

Well we have been lucky so far, Old Man Winter has spared us, right now it is 51, raining and a stiff breeze, but,  The first big lake effect snow storm of the season is likely Wednesday through Friday in Upstate New York as the coldest air of the season moves in from Canada. Buffalo could get a foot of snow, and areas to the south could get double that. Carthage, Watertown and Tug Hill is in the path of up to 20 inches as the wind sweeps in from the west. Wednesday commutes could be slippery and dangerous in both spots, the National Weather Service says.
.
.
Outside is green grass, leaves and the Bird Feeders are clear,  Saint Francis under the tree is ready for possible a good storm.
.
We have to go to Syracuse Thursday and that is in part of this Winter Watch !!
.
.
This my Idea of Winter but having been in the Hospital and at the Doctors Office and in Cardiac Rehab for the past 2 months and waiting to see what the Doctor says tomorrow about today's Nuclear Stress Test. 
.
You stay Warm down there in Deltona Jack and Sherry !
.
Don't Forget, Remember our Vets, Past and Present !
