I should clarify that I don't hate them because they are rich, but because they act rich. You can have alot of money but still have your feet firmly planted on the ground and show come compassion. These friends of theirs lack both.
Actually our winters here are very mild because of the coast. We get more rain and less snow. Last year it snowed once on Dec 24th for about 2 hrs, then it warmed up and the snow was all gone by the evening. Yes, we do get the occasional sunny crisp day in Nov. which I take advantage off. A few years ago I waited too long and ended up on my balcony on a rainy, cold, windy day to put up the light. Never again. My neighbours think I'm nuts because I have my lights lit from Nov 30 to Jan 31...
and I put up my tree at the end of Nov. (artificial).
Actually, I'm on a day off now but came in to work to post pictures of my cone. Imagestation is very slow today. Watch for posting about Gilbert

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
