the Unexpressed Advantage

I know I talk about the weather more than most people do on their blogs, but – as you know by now – I live in Vancouver. And in Vancouver the weather is pretty important. Yesterday was the first "actual" summer day. With the sun up early (6am) and down late (9:30pm). There was no cloud in the sky all day and it was a balmy 30 (86 F) degrees – which some locals think is "hot" but when you're from 40+ (104 F) degree summers in Northern California, 30 is nothing more than gentle warmth, even your friend's "really hot" 3^rd floor condo without air conditioning.
