such a gorgeous weekend

 Holy cow - it was perfection in North Texas this weekend. Up in the 60s or more.  Clearest blue skies and minimal wind
 We're talking lawnmowers and leaf blowers - no snow blowers, obviously  - sorry my Northeast friends
 Local Chisholm Park in Bedford.  Above - a wood duck - such pretty colors.
 Fat ducks thanks to all of the bread folks throw in the pond.
Ray and I got in our steps and enjoyed the calm.

    I have to admit, it was beautiful even here. Not warm enough to wear my thong in public, mind you, but nice.
    Of course, wearing my thong in public isn't such a great idea in August, either.
    Ya know, I think I just made myself sick a little.

    Sounds like your weather was pretty much like our. Mid to high sixties, and it's supposed to top seventy tomorrow. Woo HOO! Now, that's my kinda winter!

    Last Friday, I posted a mini snowman just for you. :) Yep, we had a dusting of snow the weekend before.
