Snow accumulations in October, even at the very end of October are not welcome. New York State’s snow belt, thanks very much, and we don’t really want to live there.

There seems to be a new suitor for the Powder Ridge ski area in Middlefield, though it’s too soon to tell if it will work out. It might be well to inquire as to the source of cash in advance of planning a deal.
