    The little bit of snow we had is gone and we had bright sun again today. It got up to 60 deg. F this afternoon. The yard is as green as if it were mid April. I sat out on the front deck for a while with a light jacket on soaking up the sun.

    Good for you. Hope we don't get any drifting over from your neck of the woods.

    Sounds wonderful. Our temps where up to 40 this week and we thought that was super. My honey said that he might just get out the lawn mower and cut the front lawn just to say he mowed the lawn in Jan. :D

    Send some of that sunshine over here please. I've almost forgotten what it feels like to sit outdoors on a sunny day.

    As the temperature lifted itself to an unseasonable 58°F, my wife and I went walking around a local cranberry bog. The day was perfect. I think Mother Nature has our weather mixed up with someone else's. Has anyone lost their good weather? This can't be January!!

    I agree! But please don't come and take it back. It has been sooooooooo long since we have had a week of no rain in the forecast, I think we need the sunshine. I am almost growing mold.

    Yes very strange. Last year we had 17 inches of snow on ground. So far less then a inch. I raked and worked in flower beds. Turning colder today.But still above normal.
