Warming a Mid-Winter Day 
snow-shovel.jpg
Here we are in the second half of February, with spring just barely visible on the horizon.

It's already been a long winter.
 
But, these frigid days are made warm every weekend, with entertainments and diversions that bring together friends, family and the community.

And this weekend is no different.
The Cabin Fever film series continues in Cooperstown.
There are historic presentations and gallery shows.
And of course, there's music.

So... off the couch.
Kick up your heels.
Enjoy the outdoors and the indoors.
And warm your heart.

It's a mid-winter wonderland.

Enjoy it.
We'll see you next Thursday.
