Not at all.  Of course, once you've verified that Heaven
exists/happens here, we'll have to kill you, rather reversing the
usual cliche. [optional smilie]

The description *did* say "for very local values".  There's a village
not 10 miles away, along the river, where there's so much chill fog so
often that vine-ripened tomatoes are only a myth.  There's a
microclimactic boundary so thin between the chill fog zone and ours
that sometimes your windshield will fog instantly when driving through
it in the cold->warm direction.  One friend has (happily without
injury) driven into the Petite river as a consequence of this.

Another fiddler is always good although I'm sadly out of practice with
my mandolin and tenor banjo.  The weather during Solstice is typically
insalubrious but upstaged by piggies, Scotch etc.  It's difficult to
go on ignoring it for more than a fortnight, hence Huddle.

Ah, well, "local" again. Any place near Halifax is a bit like that.
Perhaps a better Wet Coast comparison would be Bowens Island.  I have
a friend there who reports very favorably although he's never
mentioned the tomato-ripening index.
