Snow in New York!

So by the end of my first week I had a number of exciting things happen:  it snowed, my first box arrived, my pickup was delivered and we sold our house!  Pretty eventful week.

Here is the view on Saturday morning of the apartments in the snow ...

New York

Well, so we don't have the pictures from the great time at Christmas in Washington where Grandma, Grandpa and Alyssa got to have Christmas morning with the Howells and then had the whole family together the following Sunday ... since the picture drive is in a box in transit ...

Speaking of transit ... I am now blogging from Saratoga Springs, New York!

The Saratoga Ward building



I arrived in the evening of New Year's day and then after a late night shopping and unpacking I spent my first Sunday at the Saratoga Ward.





Here are some shots from downtown Saratoga Springs on a bright and relatively warm (low 40's) January day.















And then the apartment complex where I am living temporarily - "The Paddocks" is nestled in the country just northeast of the town ...

Building 13 where I have a upper story apartment

It is quite a spacious 2 bedroom when I was expecting a small 1 bedroom.
Anyone want to come for a visit?  I've got the room!
