I bet that looks funny whenever the wind blows hard and there aren't any waves, not too good for surfing I bet.
I've seen some questionable people *try* to walk on the water here, didn't work out too well though. Splash!

Amen to what Mark said, John. Got a good belly laugh this morning. I gotta remember that line when I get hassled by my brother in Ft. Myers, and my sister in S.F. 9 degrees here this morning.

Just noticed that there is this strange looking white stuff on the tops of the hills to the west of us, this is rare to see here in the valley. lol

I had my fair share when I lived in Newfoundland and Ottawa when I did my studies up north. Still remembered waiting for bus at -40C at Nepean, On.
Now I am in TX, a session of freezing rain shutdown the whole city for 2 days couple of years ago !!!

I can actually empathize with you cold weather guys today. I played a round of golf yesterday in frigid 60* weather - last couple holes there were even some sprinkles.
If I had known the weather was going to be so inclement, I would have worn long pants!

When it gets into the lower 40s and the wind is blowing only moderately, golf season has arrived (generally mid-April). When we see temps in the 60s, June has arrived.

Golfers are nuts.
We played an early round this winter one weekend. At the first tee it was 39* and windy. Frozen fingers made for a very difficult first few holes.
Let me know next time you're in soCal and I'll steer you to some very nice local courses. I think this has got to be public golf heaven here. Lots of nice courses competing with each other.
Played a Payne Stewart design yesterday for $35! All 18 and GPS to boot.
