Snow!

OK, big deal for most of you, I know. But snow is rare and wonderful here in lotus land. Everyone is now in a real Christmassy mood.

Stella did an admirable job driving us home from the office Christmas party last night in the middle of the "storm" (i.e. 5 cm of snow). Arbutus proved just steep enough to make things exciting for those without snow tires (i.e. 99% of the cars in Vancouver).

The party was quite fun, but shovelling snow with a hangover was not so fun.

Justin and Brooks pounded me with snowballs for about an hour until they tired themselves out. Snow should melt away within 48 hours...
