Weather!

What a wide range of weather we've had this week! Monday was very warm, around 65 degrees, but we had winds of up to 5o MPH. Tuesday was supposed to be warm, but was still pretty windy and never really got above 45 or so. Then yesterday was in the high 50's but back to quite windy- 20 to 30 MPH. But it was nice enough to play in the backyard and go to the playground for awhile. Then this morning, I looked outside and saw this:


That's right: a little junco looking for food in the new snow! Good thing Ethan and I filled up the bird feeder yesterday.

I really won't miss the wind when we leave here. It's constant and makes it very unpleasant to be outside, even on warm days. The cold in itself is a mere inconvenience because everyone has to bundle up, but it's not that bad. But when the wind is strong enough to blow over my yard swing that takes two grown men to move... that's too much!
