You get desperate for the kids just to be able to Go outside and not have to take an entire hour just to get out the door and buy stock in hand warmers because otherwise the kids could have frost bite (Noelle). So you have a goood friend who has some of the same feelings and plus it would also be nice to see the thermometer go above 35F---- so we get a brillant idea---lets go find a playground that has no snow and SUN and warmer weather. On the thruway we live at exit 30 (it also takes about 45-60min to get to that exit) but we got off on exit 25 and found a playground outside in the sun --not snow free but not like our snow either so 2hours later we decided to keep heading south. By this time the wind had picked up and it was brutal out we know one person in the car that would not have lasted very long at all. So you will get desperate really desperate and we pulled into McDonalds Play Place (the germs and everything that crawls--ugh)(well just don't think about it) and set up camp the kids knew the mission play and tire yourself out---they were hot and sweaty ---they went through 4 water bottles a piece and Annette and I took turns going shopping to Target, Wal Mart, Home Depot and diner at Chipotle Grill-----it was a wonderful day, the kids had fun and were exhausted and we got to see the sun and it 60F and only got to 40F at home that day.
