Some good friends of mine found themselves stranded in Santa Monica and
then San Pedro for 8 years. Peter always said he wanted to see it snow
in Los Angeles, so he could go to the top of the Barrington Towers and
watch the world's largest game of bumper cars.
It snowed in L.A. on Christmas morning, 1988: the day Peter moved from
the L.A. area permanently, home to New England. Be careful what you
wish for, you may get it! ;^)
