The 'S' Word in Chicago

You can feel it in the air. The first snow of the season is coming to Chicago on Wednesday. And, from what I hear, this is just the beginning of a usually rough winter out here. Wind and snow. I had not seen much of the white stuff in Amsterdam over the last few years, so this will require some getting used to. But my sister Sylvia, who had survived a few Windy City winters, bought a nice warm jacket for this poor student and all I need is a nice warm hat. Bring it on, Chicago! (I think I might regret saying this...)
