What do you do when the weather turns bad? Do you give in to the weather and let it control you, or do you take control and use the weather to your advantage? Do you find a way to have fun with it?

In my village…and all around Western New York…we tend to grab the weather by the tail and ride it for all it’s worth. Especially in the Winter, folks in and around Buffalo just seem to find a way to make the weather fun. Tons of snow? No problem! That just means more skiing, skating, sledding, snowmobiling…and other sports that begin with “S” apparently!

For me, it means ski-shoeing…a cross between cross country skiing and snowshoeing. I use a hybrid ski called a Hok, made by Altai Skis. I love them!

Join me on Episode 10 of Thoughts on Walks as I ski-shoe around Knox Farms in my little village of East Aurora, New York.
