The average rainfall in Eugene, OR is about the same as Marin County, CA

Marin county? LOL! As far as I'm concerned that's the cold, rainy north.

Actually I was referring to Southern California. Guess I should have made that clear. Hehe.

Where I am it gets about 12" a year, and our place in the high country, at the 6800 foot level is about the same, but does get some snow once in a while. I mean it's 65 degrees up there today, with no snow on the ground, and it's December! LOL!

I was just pulling your leg. Oregon is nice, it's just too rainy and gloomy for me. We are just too spoiled in Southern Cal.
