Since we live about 7 miles from the coast it never snows in our area. Today was actually nice, in the 60's. I've only seen real snow once, when we lived in Bremerton, WA, but it was slushy snow, not the "snowman building" snow.caninecolognehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07921983679558271352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-4351953933956143712006-12-09T10:13:00.000-05:002006-12-09T10:13:00.000-05:00OMG!

I grew up in French Canada (well not <i>that</i> French, since it was in the West Island, 20 mins from Montreal). I grew up with it being "tuque"! LOL! Very cool, Dylon :)<br /><br />Canine, a tuque is a knit cap that keeps head and ears warm in the winter months in Canada :) Worn by many young children who resist the tuque, but also by adults who don't mind the goofy look and rather stay warm! :) LOL!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09251507898309184477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-20920369197862889572006-12-07T22:47:00.000-05:002006-12-07T22:47:00.000-05:00Take off, eh!
