"The All Weather Gang is a group of diverse individuals – think aerospace
engineer and English teacher to graphic designer and owner of a construction company – from Western New York State who have met almost every Saturday for decades to go outdoors and paint in weather that at times would give even the U.S. Postal Service reason to reconsider.
