Yeah, I have been hearing those reports. I am not used to driving in
winter weather like that anymore. I have been a California gal for
much of the past 18 years: we only get rain in the SF bay area.

I am hoping I can make it. I have been planning for this brunch ever
since I heard about it. I am driving up that way on Friday, hope I
know more by then, if there is a major snowstorm heading that way. If
so, I am staying here, even if it means I am missing meeting some of
the legends of rfc.

I am *such* a wimp!
