My Walk-11/12/12

The weather yesterday was....wonderful...It was so warm, i got to take my jacket off and walk in short sleeves, letting the sun and wind touch my skin, probably for the last time now for the next 5 or so months. The weather was actually balmy...intoxicating...and totally NOT normal for this time of year. Honestly it was more like a late Spring day than a late Autumn day. Still i enjoy each little gift as it is given to us.

the bittersweet is still beautiful on the vines growing in the woods. Whenever i see this plant it reminds me of my Grandmother Mary and my Aunt Mary, who are both in Spirit, and both also loved bittersweet.. They used to cut it and wrap it around wreaths, or put it in vases around their homes... I am leaving this to the woods, as my little cat Hannah Pearl would probably chomp on it....

and i took a self portrait, with dog and chuckit ball.....
my trusty walking stick in my hand....
Anyway, i am so glad i got out and walked my 3 miles yesterday because this morning i woke up and it was so miserable out, even the dogs didn't want to go out there. Heavy chilly rain with slushy snow mixed in...What a difference a day makes. It's the exercise bike for me today!

It does look like a lovely day there. Now and then we get the occasional day that is warm - but as you say, not for much longer. Here's to another few bright sunny days Mare!
