Looks like winter has come to portions of the U.P.

I have lived in 8 states, 23 cities and over 31 residences (apartments, town houses, homes) over the last 50 years, and I just can’t understand how you can live in one such cold place for so long. Great admiration, though.

Kinda like being a red chipper for 30 years.

See how pretty the snow looks with the leaves not all off the trees yet.

Having lived 5 years in Michigan, 7 years in upstate New York, an year in South Dakota, I have experienced some snow. It does snow where I live. Yes, it looks nice but leaves fall off, snow gets heavier, etc. When the leaves are still on trees, things look nice but the 4 months of leaves on trees does not compensate for all of then falling out and you gotta wait 6+ months for them to return. For me, depression sets in.

its one thing to go on a ski vacation, get the snow but living...ugh!

I must admit this gave me a chuckle. However, I know if I was betting anything larger than red chip I wouldn't have a place to play for long. I know $25 to $200 would not be tolerated very long. Besides some of these casinos only have $100 as max bet. You could not get a big enough spread to play anything but red. There is no stress at playing at the red chip level because the most you will probably lose is around $1,500. Of course the amount you will win is also limited.

Zee, send me a email at [email protected] Curious what part of upstate NY you lived in.

Oneonta, Ny, Vestal, NY, fairly regularly visited Albany and Syracuse.

So what happened to your potential move to warmer climes? 70+ and sunny in St. George.
