When my family moved from the northeast US to Los Angeles friends kept asking if it felt like Christmas because it was warm and there was obviously no snow.
My mother told them that it felt even more like Christmas to her because it was very similar to Bethlehem's climate.
Do you think that our expectations of holiday weather have been heavily influenced by artists (like Currier & Ives) and advertising?
Or are they more heavily influenced by our younger experiences of holidays?
...Or instead of childhood for some of us, by the past holidays we most enjoyed?
