A Touch of Summer
I interrupt this Christmas season for a touch of summer in Minnesota.

I am posting this sitting on our newly re-done Three Season Porch. The outside temperature has gone up to the low 40s(F), the porch with its gazillion windows faces south, and the sun is bright and beautiful.

Yes, it is a white Christmas outside, but right here, for this moment, on this porch, in the sun, it is a wondrous 69 degrees F. Aaaaahhhhh.

Wouldn't it be great to grill out on Christmas Day?

(Update: It got up to a wondrous 72 degrees F on that sunny porch. Hope springs eternal!)
