First Snowfall

It looks like the first snow of the year is on the way for Michigan. A cold arctic blast is slated to move in over the weekend and interact with the much warmer waters of the Great Lakes for a good round of lake effect snow. Ugh. Looks like I got out of Dodge just in time.\r\n\r\nI”m down in Branson, visiting my friend Lisa and enjoying a beautiful, sunny day from the elegant comfort of my lodgings at the Stonebridge Village resort. Today is supposed to be in the sixties, and tomorrow will scrape up into the seventies. I couldn”t ask for a better time to enjoy autumn in the Ozarks with Lisa, aka “Stormy”–she”s a weather buff like me. That makes two people for whom talking about the weather goes deeper than just the superficial.\r\n\r\nSo, friends and family in Michigan, I”m afraid I”ll have to skip our state”s prelude to winter. But you all have fun, hear? Enjoy the snow and cold while I sit here in front of the fireplace and snicker, har, har, har!
