Snow in the Big City

I took the train. I probably would have made it just fine driving in but why risk it. I took a few pictures with my phone but I have have better ones on my camera that will have to wait until I'm back "upstate." Above is a picture of the subway station at 72nd and Broadway.

In an ironic twist of luck (for me) New York City got more snow that we did at my house. So I actually hit the snow jackpot.

So rare to see the snow while it is still pretty and white here. I have to say that they clean up the streets and sidewalks like real pros in the city. They don't mess around.

Big Storm on the Way (I Should Be Happy)

So we are bracing for a big snow storm. The forecasters are using such exciting words, Mega storm, the big one, blizzard conditions. These are words I long for. I love snow and big snow storms. The more snow the better...but not tonight.

I have to go into the city tomorrow. I very rarely go into the city and normally I would be so very happy to watch a big snow storm but I don't want to have to drive in one. Now I know how the rest of the world feels. Well, sort of. I'm not dreading the snow, or cursing it. I'll still think it is beautiful. It will still make me smile.

Maybe I'll take the train. I wonder if the trains run on time in a big snow?

I'll have to find the MTA website.

Wish me luck.

A little snow

Today we are getting a bit of snow. I'm very happy to see the snow as I prefer it to the ugly brown grass. I just wish it could have waited to show for another day because I have to drive Hoover into the city for his pacemaker check up tomorrow.

Here's a video I took with my phone. A little grainy but I wanted to capture snow falling so I can watch it when it is all gone.
