Thank you for all of your nice comments on my last post. I’m so glad we were able to entertain you while simultaneously entertaining ourselves! It was a lot of fun, and I’ve really been enjoying the reactions of people who’ve watched the video.
Two days after we filmed that, the temperature took a nosedive back into the 20s and 30s, so our sunny 50-degree frolic was short-lived. Another storm is forecast for this weekend, and there’s a possibility of yet another a few days after that.
Oh, Winter, really… it’s enough now, don’t you think?
