Seattle is about the same latitude as where I live now. Admittedly it was a very unusual December this past year, but we had only one day when the high broke 32--New Year's Eve. We will be hammered in January and February. Seattle rarely gets much snow. I just bought a big snow plow for my truck to keep my driveways clear.
In the morning I am heading South for January. I think I will skip it up here this year. Florida had better warm up! I am going to the National Home Builder's show and then to Lecanto to try to warm up a little. I hope Florida warms up soon! I would love to be able to slip into the pool while I am down there. Jerry P.S. I hope to get to a ball game or two while I am down there.

Jerry... you call that MILD? That's cold by Florida standards. ;-) The weather was horrible the two (or three?) times I was there for work and/or pleasure, but I'll give you the food thing. There is a LOT of fabulous food there, and it IS clean.
