Well, all good things have to come to an end. Although I have been talking (complaining) about the the cooler weather, we have now emerged into downright COLD weather. Overnight was just around freezing with a high today of 5°C. To add insult to injury, we have had our first rainfall since we came down over 3 weeks ago. Last night and this morning were blustery, cold and wet, so we hunkered down with computers sewing machines and soldering irons. Unfortunately the internet was somewhere between dead slow and stop, as I guess everyone else was using it as well.
After a warming lunch of hot soup we ventured out to the town of Daphne, about 30 miles away. It seems that a fabric / craft store up there had a sale! As we drove north the weather started to clear, but the temperature stayed the same. On the way back we took the scenic drive for a while that followed the eastern shore of Mobile bay. By now the cold front was well past and the visibility was great, and the skies began to clear.
Not much else to say, hopefully the temperatures will start to pick up again. They can’t get much lower, at least not this far south.
