Late November one year ago

Our weather is predictably inconsistent  or consistently unpredictable. It was comparatively balmy this time a year ago. I spent an afternoon on a farm near Troy off highway 5. There might have been a fierce wind but nothing like the sub zero temperatures we've experienced the last few days let alone the icy sidewalks and certainly nothing like the five feet of snow Buffalo has endured in the last day or so brrrr

Mid November Sunday afternoon, light snow...drawing as usual

Today I took a different route to avoid traffic and road closure for the Santa Claus parade - Locke to Barton  to Bay to Mulberry  to park just shy of James North.Traffic flowed like a charm.
