The first snow of the Year...

I wish we could get some snow here in Northern California. I live close to the Pacific ocean and we just get rain and fog. An occasional frost is about it.

Ok, Paris is different than Vienna - we get snow normally end of October. It stays for a week then it melts. Then in December it comes again, them melts again. Then from the middle of December to March there is _only_ snow.

Okay! You folks bring the snow and I supply the grog. Or visa versa?

[Ferdinand]

Works with me - but I'll have to wait till snow falls to bring you some

Keep me posted. Just to know when I should start warming the grog.
