Guest guest Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 Not to gloat, but seriously this is one of the reasons I moved to Los Angeles. It's been around 55 at night, and around 70 during the day this weekend. I meant to take a picture of blue skies and palm trees on xmas, but just forgot. Those of you in colder climates have my sympathies -- I simply can't take the cold at all, and for me cold is below 50 degrees! in LA who has turned into a weather wimp *wink* On Mon, 27 Dec 2004 11:08:41 -0500, isabellabird@... wrote: > -- > It's 10 degrees here in upstate New York-- LOTS of snow.

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 We used wood for our main fuel supply as I was growing up in Western Washington State! I remember that I was the one that had to load it in the pickup and after we gortit back home, the pieces were thrown down by the wood shed and my job was to stack the wood after it seasoned! Yesterday, temp got up to high 60s, about the same forecast today..... hugs Re: winter > > -- > It's 10 degrees here in upstate New York-- LOTS of snow. Last week a > couple of nights got to -10.
