Aha!  Great minds think alike. . .   :-)  I like the symmetry of the boxes, 
and the non-symmetry of the light on them, and the tree.

What really attracted me about my mailboxes was the way the golden light 
reflected a different color off of each of the boxes.

We had this conversation last year.  You get about 8.5 degrees in 
Goteberg.  We get about 19 in Seattle.  I don't know which city is 
cloudier, but I suspect Seattle is.  So we can be equally miserable in 
slightly different ways.  And we take pictures anyway.  :-)

Wow, Graham, the box has your initials on it!   :-)    Great Christmas 
colors, too!
