That's certainly true.  I've forgotten now where we were. :)

Ironically, we'll be further north, but it'll be warmer and rainier.  
We'll be at 100 feet above sea level instead of nearly 4,000.

Over here, that's likely to get you a $125 fine (at least in Salt Lake 
City - a group of us were heading to lunch one day, and a cop caught 
three coworkers jaywalking.  My boss and I had stopped because he wanted 
to light a cigarette, and I was talking to him.

The other three got off with a warning.  Now I wonder if Samantha was the 
cop.
