I was in NYC when it got 28” of snow. I think it was eight years ago. We were there for the Westminster Kennel club show at the Garden. We stayed directly across the street at Hotel Pennsylvania. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon. By that evening it was coming down hard. The next morning, nothing was moving except the subways. Penn Station was right across the street. We went to the museum of Natural History the next day.
By Monday morning every time you tried to step off a sidewalk you had to slop through a three foot puddle of SLUSH. Our son was only eight at the time. It was his first trip to the big city.
Teach them early to avoid the Big Rotten Apple!
