Snow And Palm Trees

Ever since I've started this nomadic wandering, the winters have been south of I-10 where palm trees are a frequent  landscape feature and the temperatures rarely drop into the 30 degree range.

With palm trees around, I will never get used to the "Sleigh Bells Ringing", "Jingle Bells", fake snow flocked trees, and -- is this really necessary -- plastic snow men.

 

Then there is the storing for eleven months until next year. Okay. So I'm a grinch.
