More snow in western NY

This is not fun anymore

I might use some miles and fly somewhere warm for a few days. Where to go is the question. I am thinking SJU or EYW. Never been to PR so that could be a good time.

Sometimes - I do enjoy cross country skiing but that is over for the winter (unless I drive to the higher elevations south of me).

This is more of the now you see it, now you don't type of snow.

It is Spring. Isn't that the time in Buffalo when the snow starts turning green?

Hi everyone!

I ended up staying home Saturday since we were going to my rabbi's house that evening. So instead, I went to Florida yesterday. I was going take a 7:20am flight to SRQ, but that's difficult when you wake up at 7:19 Managed to get on a 9am to FLL and spent the day at Dania Beach. The weather was nice and sunny, although very windy. Overall it was a great day.

Today was quite busy, since we are having pilot interviews tomorrow. Tomorrow will be a very long day. I don't want to get this Friday off, since I am busy this weekend

-J.

Well it wasn't all great, actually... I fell asleep in the sun and have been facing the consequences since

I am hoping to get Thursday off this week!
