[Magdalen] Safely home

[Jay Weigel]

The Pacific Northwest is not all THAT cold in November, and you could visit
two countries at once....see listsibs in both Vancouvers and then perhaps
drive down the coast into California. That's one thought. Texas and New
Mexico are another, although we do not have as many there as we once did.
If you wish to see your northern brethren and sistren, you will have to
visit earlier in the year.
