Hi Janis... Well, I will be honest. I was there Yesterday, and it was cold
and a rain and snow mixture, I wanted to go take a peak, but I also know I
have reached the point where there is nothing I can do for them. I was
thankful Momma was there last time I looked, but even so, the kittens are
getting bigger and wilder if they are surviving and I wouldn't be able to
get near them.  The short of it is, I did not have the heart to look
Yesterday. I would have felt terrible if they were "You Know" So I did not
go searching.

I am about 3 miles south of Lake Ontario. So we get milder weather ( just a
bit ) in Fall and Colder in spring. The lake does have a big effect on
temps and depending on the wind direction, Precipitation. Luckily the last
few years it has been the east side of the lake that gets hammered during
the winter.

I know what You mean.. I remember some Decembers being a bit on the nippy
side. I love the December snow and cold ( not too much ). Then after The
Holidays, I am ready for a change . We've had an awful lot of rainy
Christmases though. I will admit, I do love having all four seasons here in
NY. Some seasons better than others, but I do like the changes. ;-)

Have a good One!
