Walking my dog I heard this guy yelling at a couple “This is a nice neighborhood we don’t need this here” Drugs? Guns? But I guess it was standing close together and kissing.

Temp is 11 with minus wind chill and getting some lake effect snow. Feel like a hardy New Yorker having walked my dog this morning—keeping an eye to make sure she wasn’t cold. She dived in to a snow drift to eat a discarded roll

My dog’s idea of a nice walk in an almost white out snowstorm is go 2 miles and climb over knee high snow drifts. Now safely home with tea and a book.
