Christmas comparison
One 5x7 picture with Santa in New Jersey shopping mall: $17.95
One 5x7 picture with Santa in historic 19th century land-claims cabin in Colorado: free, plus you get coupons for stores in the surrounding commercial district
Christmas tree from typical New Jersey source (a garden store): $25-50 dollars, depending on size and type
Christmas tree from typical Colorado source (the great outdoors): $10 for a permit if you cut in in the national forest; free if you cut it on your church's ranch as part of a forest management program
Snow before Christmas in New Jersey: Usually none
Snow before Christmas in Colorado: Dustings at home, but enough to go sledding when you drive up to aforementioned ranch in the mountains
Good stuff!

Nice! And when will you post a scan of the 5x7 photo with Santa?? :)
Awesome! Too bad here it is: Xmas tree San Diego - $40; Xmas Tree, Santa Barbara - $65. (Not that we paid that.) Xmas weather, San Diego -Sunny, 72. Xmas weather, Santa Barbara: 55 and rain.
