Cool legend! There's a parable about a bird migrating South that gets caught in a snowstorm...I'll have to look it up...

Buffalo & southtowns got 2 to 3 feet of snow on top of blowing drifting snow...One city controller in Hamburg actually pulled the snowplows off the streets last night...I guess they got tired of getting lost & plowing empty fields...

Buffalo Airport was closed; all flights cancelled...My mailgirl hasn't shown up yet, I'm wondering if mail delivery was cancelled today...

I've never been to Italy; like to go someday...And Spain and Portugal too...
