Yesterday, it snowed in New York City for the first time this winter. Overnight, we are expected to get 3-6 inches. I am not thrilled.
Growing up I loved the snow. A day off of school, tackle football (it didn't hurt to get tackled), and snowball fights were just a few of the highlights. I still love snow, but not in New York City.
In the city, the snow just makes a mess. It gets dirty (and with the dogs often yellow) very quickly, making a slushy salty liquid that gets all over your shoes. When it finally all melts, it creates huge puddles of muddy water that floods and drains slowly.
Not having fun with snow is just a price you pay for living in a big city.

My first winter in the city. I look forward to it all. I want the whole package.
