I'm snowbound in Williamstown, MA, which is hardly a disaster. I'm not stuck at an airport, and I don't have to be anywhere until Monday, I can hole up in my room and work on files, and take breaks and wander through this winter wonderland of the foot and a half snowfall that has closed the roads leading out of town.
I'm on another tri-college tour, first Barnard, now Williams College (which is delighted to get snow scenes to scare off their California applicants), next Mt. St.Mary's in Maryland. Robin and I have exchanged gushy emails and cards today (mine I left with a Do Not Open Until Feb 14 note). Her's concludes with a reference to a favorite New Yorker cartoon ("Sure, what the hell, I''ll take a little more marriage.") that is on our fridge: "So after deep consideration I've come to the conclusion that we should have some more marriage. What d'ya think?"
Works for me.
Me too.

I live about 25 minutes drive from Williamstown, down in Dalton. Take advantage of your time in Williamstown and have a look at the excellent Clarke art museum, and the williams college museum of art (if your not burned out from your Chelsea tour). There are currently photography exhibits at both I believe.If you get a chance, a trip to North adams to see the MoCA is worth its as well.
