Hey Wendy, any snow where you are? We've had some for 1 week now! ![Shocked](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/icon_eek.gif) A tad early for us in Alberta. We have made it all the way to Dec 24 without the white stuff before - not this year.

Ross,New Russia is right in the mountains and it is a bit cooler than here. The whole area is considered the back of beyond by the rest of the state. Good. That's why it is so nice here.
A blooming orchid or several make the winter go faster.

Thanks for the "insight" I'll let Russ know how the rest of the state feels
All I know is the Adirondacks are very nice, especially in fall. I grew up in Niagara Falls and the mountains have always been an attraction to me. Welcome aboard!

I live in Hood River, Oregon - Windsurfing Capital of the World ( so they say ). But from April - Sept when the population swells by 10X we refer to them as windslime ( behind their backs, of course) Welcome, welcome ... ( leave your money and go home now ) ![Wink](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif) The rest of the year is given back to normality, farming, and the quiet life.
No snow yet, just LOTS of rain - BUCKETS!! Makes the humidity factor nice for the chids!
