Seeing Santa ringing a bell in front of Safeway in 80+ temps and sunshine is a

We have green trees even in winter. They're called evergreens. ;-)

We get very little snow in the lower elevations.

They do that in Alaska, not here.

I have only shoveled snow off my driveway once. That was 30+ years ago.

We don't get Santa Anas around here. ;-)
