We're in our 6th year living down here. Yes, it's cold this week at night. But not cold enough to complain about it. I just put the quilt on the bed last night for the first time this year and was cozy and comfy under the covers til I woke up.

Being outside when the temps are in the 60s is refreshing. It's like the weight of a Florida summer and humidity has lifted and the air is once again welcomed back into my lungs. Yup - gotta dress for it, wear socks instead of sandals, sweater or hoodie over your tee shirt, long pants, and your nose runs when you're outside so bring tissues.

It feels GOOD to be chilly. If the temps were down in the 40s during the day, and 20s at night, I'd be complaining. Whining. Ranting. And miserable. But it's not. It's gorgeous.
