that better be a correct saying because to me this april has been wet and if it was not for the few sunny and warm days we have had id be really upset. heheheh! anyway at least we can say we are resiliant and can make it through anything cuz were from NY or have at least lived here for awhile.
nothing compares to new york, there is a certain thing about people from here that sets us apart. maybe it is the high education standards (far above many other states), maybe its our agriculture, or our people and the diversity they bring, maybe its the weather that teaches us all to "be prepared" cuz in two hours we will have something entirely different to deal with.
nowhere else is sunshine and fair skies more appreciated, nowhere else do we hardly ever close schools dispite three feet of snow with more coming. and snow tires, we will think about it, but we learned to drive in this stuff on all season tires, and havent had anything else, so why change now. besides, if we slip and slide, it just makes driving that much more interesting. who wants to get bored and have a reason to fall asleep at the wheel anyway?
im sure there are sentiments about other states that we can think of so please share ill look forward to them from my out of state friends who spent some of their lives in new york. hope some of these cute little rantings gave someone a chuckel.
love ya all - melissa
