The Last Warm Day


Yesterday we had a brief period of sunshine that was only slightly reminiscent of the warm day in fall that was recorded by this outdoor thermometer. After church and a light lunch,we went for a vigorous walk. After a few miles, our metabolisms got revved up and we threw open our jackets, deceiving ourselves into thinking it was fall again, or maybe early spring. The things we do to avoid winter.
Later, it was off to our second Christmas Season feed in two days, at our good friend's Frank and Elma's. They put on a great spread with plenty of good food and warm hospitality. With our stomachs full of natural sedatives (abundantly contained in Turkey meat) we sat around a table of more nibblies and played games and had a lot of good belly laughs. What would life be without good friends? I shudder to think.
