Winter Is Here

| | Comments (4)

for Jeanetta and myself and anyone else in Upstate NY.Once those temps hit like "Today's High is 32 degrees" Pansy Moss does not leave home.

The weather is so different here than it was 4 hours south in New Jersey. Summer does not hit until like the very end of June, and the first week of September it is Fall. But I have to say, autumn up here is breathtaking. All I can say is "just friggin beautiful"!

Our farm is located in the Mohawk Valley, about 15 miles west of the North American Martyrs Shrine where Bl. Kateri was baptised and St. Isaac Jogues was martyred. His body was thrown in the Mohawk River, so I think that makes the river Holy Water?? Not sure. I also live not far from where Bl. Kateri was born.

It is funny, because when you are originally from downstate NY, the City to be more specific, it is like an entirely different country. People leave NY City and travel the world to seek out beautiful places without realising how lovely it is a few hours northwest.

Wow! Winter there, and summer inexplicably came back to us (we have had mid-90's for the past few days, which, combined with dry off-shore winds means fire red flags everywhere). I have never had a shirt get soaked with sweat at the pumpkin patch before.

:-) My boss told me it's supposed to be in the 70s this weekend! I complain about the cold, but I really do like snow and the changing seasons. It just gets old around May! ;-)

Fall has arrived in Tucson... highs in the low 80s, lows in the high 50s.

I remember a few years back my family went on a cross country trip (all 11 of us!- that was a hoot!) and when we went to NY it was everything I imagined - huge buildings & tons of people. Then we visited upstate (including the beautiful N.A. Shrine) and it was so incredibly beautiful! I never imagined that NY was so pretty! This So. Calif girl was finally enlightened about the beauty of your state. And I wish some of that cool weather were here. We're going through a bit if a heat wave. I don't remember going to the beach on the week of halloween!
