PS

Summer starts about July 3rd and is somewhat temperate.  Bring you 
sweaters and wool socks.  The natives won't make fun of you if you wear 
the sweaters and wool socks with sandals and shorts...you'll fit right 
in.  All the new comers find sweaters necessary when the temperature 
gets below 70.  But they toughen up.  Pretty soon anything above 32 is 
shorts and T-shirt weather.

I've switched to my lighter down jacket, often leave the watch-cap 
behind and must switch to my light weight boots soon.  Summer's coming! 
  Its still light at 6:00pm!  The sun is up by 7:00am!  If you come in 
early July the sun hardly ever sets.  You'd like it.  The cities become 
very cosmopolitan!
