Tim   I can recall in the mid 40's at least two Easter Sunday, all dressed up in my finest new Easter clothes, freezing in the cold and wearing my new patent leather shoes in the snow.   Anne --- On Tue, 4/7/09, Tim Stowell <tstowell@chattanooga.net> wrote: From: Tim Stowell <tstowell@chattanooga.net> Subject: [NYCHENAN] Spring?

The dogwood trees, lilacs are all in bloom. Today we have rather extensive snow flurries!  It is a blustery day. This is the latest I've ever seen snow here. On the front end of winter, my grandfather told us many years ago that most years snow fell before his birthday, October 19th. I'm wondering two things - - the latest snow has fallen in central New York - in your lifetime - how this winter compares snow wise to previous years Ok, one more thing for those older members, are folks today wimps compared to what you had to go through dealing with the snowy weather? ------------------------------------------------------via webmail---- Tim Stowell tstowell@chattanooga.net ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to NYCHENAN-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
