Ramblings of a Dutchy in California

In April 2003 I traded my hometown of Haarlem, Netherlands, for the San Francisco Bay Area and a career in tech journalism and high-tech public relations. But work isn't the only reason I like the area, as you'll see on this blog, which will primarily have photos and some personal thoughts.

Snow!

This weekend I did my first skiing of the season! There is tons of snow in the California Sierras, much better than last year. The San Jose Mercury News reported on Friday that because of the snow level, Bay Area residents won't have to worry about water shortages this summer. That means everyone can water their lawns, wash their cars and flush their toilets, plus there won't be a need to share bath water. (Seriously, that's what they reported, though I doubt anyone shared bath water last summer.) Anyway, here are some snow shots.
