Hi Trumpy

Reminds me of my childhood in Pennsylvania. We had a metal barrel in the backyard where we would burn trash, and on snowbound days, I would shovel a path from the back porch to the burner.

If I didn't know my geography as well as I do, I would imagine NZ being a tropical paradise like all Pacific Islands. [Linked Image]

I live in California now, 37 N and snow does not really show up here in the winter west of the Sierra Nevada.

89.6 F/32 C outside.

A quick perusal of my globe would put you as far from the equator as Portland, Oregon or Portland, Maine.
