That's great!  I would really like to attend the monthly Critical Mass
here, but it is unclear whether I'd be able to in the near future.  My
original plan was to take off that day every month, but, because of
upcoming vacation times, I may or may not be able to do this.

Well, it did snow quite a lot.  Luckily, we were stranded at Kripalu, the
yoga center in Western Ma.  We went on vacation during that new
year's weekend to go there and it seemed to work out well, eating lots of
vegetarian food.
