Where'd I leave those Bermuda shorts?

Rod, you had those shorts on BaaaAaAaAaAaBs on New Years Eve. Check your sheep/play pen.

I bet she keeps you all nice and warm and comfy eh?

Scotty,

We spent 3 days in Dawson City, YT in August. Is that far enough north to give you a holler?

This is what we had in Newport Oregon today... yep, ice right on the beach!

Only about 30 degrees, but it sure was SLICK! I ended up walking to work...

The ice was about 3/4 to an inch thick

I'm REALLY bored at work! I just checked Expedia for the hell of it. According to Expedia, you're closer to Scotty from Dorado County than from Dawson City.

We got a big, big country up here in Canada.

Are you closer to Dawson or Dorado for him?
How much of a difference?
Boredom...its the winter life.

I'm 300 miles closer to El Dorado, Ca than Dawson City. I've been looking for places to go in the summer. It's that California Dreamin' on a winter's day thing happening.
