Because winter’s just too short
February 26th
It’s been a pretty good winter up here in the mid-Atlantic—cold but not bone-chilling, a couple decent bouts of snow. Whereas in the summer, I often drive out to the Ramapo Mountains on the weekend to go hiking, in winter we just head to the nearest frozen lake (weather permitting) and skate. And now that the day here in Brooklyn is gorgeous and mild (high of 50!)… we’re headed up to Canada for one last truly wintery weekend. We’ll fly into Syracuse this evening, then drive up to Kingston and catch a ferry to Wolfe Island.
Saturday in Brooklyn: high of 44. Saturday in Wolfe Island: high of 22, and hopefully plenty of ice…
