I think it's delightful to take a weekend and delight in the snow and the bitter cold, and then return to the beach where it's sunny and I can wear shorts and a t-shirt without fear of frostbite.<br /><br />You'll be welcome in California.LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05538854359365988863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732239755169187164.post-73319789068364725582009-07-18T21:31:17.206-07:002009-07-18T21:31:17.206-07:00But what's wrong with chipping ice in the wint...But what's wrong with chipping ice in the winter?

Thanks for the input on that posting.<br /><br />The summer (by Canadian standards) is 12 months long here. Cold is defined by an evening where it's too chilly to wear a t-shirt at midnight.<br /><br />I heat the pool if anybody wants to swim and it raises it from chilly to "bath water" warm. So you can swim here all year comfortably. As the days grow shorter there is less sunlight where you would want to bask in the sun and tan. While lamentable, you can't change the laws of physics simply to please the sun-worshipers.<br /><br />Griffin loves the water and loves to "swim". He splashes and kicks his little feet. <br /><br />We wouldn't have a pool if we had to chip the ice in the winter...LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05538854359365988863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732239755169187164.post-22996149699230454692009-07-18T20:25:26.366-07:002009-07-18T20:25:26.366-07:00And how long is your summer there?
