Cold
8 Jan, 2004
As a relatively recent resident of Southern California, I have been repeatedly asked "Bet you're having second thoughts about leaving California, eh?"
Not really.After a startingly mild December, with temperatures in the 40s and even 50s for much of the month, the weather has gotten rather cold over the last couple of days... highs of 20 degrees during the day, single digits overnight, and who knows how cold with the wind chill.

Not really. I don't really know what to say other than No... It's cold here, but it's also woodsy, hilly, and generally beautiful. It's warm in L.A., but it's also overpopulated, smoggy, and generally blighted.
Even in the bleak depths of last March I wasn't inclined to second-guess our move.
