Surviving Winter Like a Champ

One of the attractions of New England is the nature surrounding the towns and cities. There are actual foliage tours. Yes you read right, "Foliage Tours". I never knew such thing existed. Soon after the leaves turn, winter hits you. It comes in full force and almost knocks your breath away. That s exactly what happened to me. I arrived in Boston on December 2007 ill-prepared for what was coming ahead. For the following 2 winter seasons I experience grief and aggravation due to the winter season and all I wanted was some insight of what I should prepared for prior to experience it. Someone please give me the winter survival guide all in one booklet. I imagined it call Surviving a New England Winter 101 living the through the winter season like a champ
