10 Degrees of Separation

Well we finally had 6 whole days without rain until yesterday, when another storm rolled in and rained on our parade(actually our campfire). We all scrambled home from our neighbours with our lawn chairs and cushions over our heads as the skies opened up. Awaking this morning, I thought we might be in for another day of rain. To my surprise, the sky was only cloudy, however since the last three days have been a balmy 24 degrees first thing in the morning, imagine my surprise when I emerged from my cocoon of a trailer in my shorts and sleeveless shirt to a not so balmy 14 degrees. It's only 10 degrees right? It feels like many more, I mean 10 degrees doesn't seem to matter too much in the winter between minus 5 or minus 15, it's still cold, however the difference between 24 and balmy to 14 and windy feels like you have stepped into another dimension. Back to the hoody and long pants and socks. It's almost as bad as finally getting out of a parka and boots to shoes and sweater and then it snows again. Not quite as bad, but you get my drift. The summer that wasn't continues here at Grundy and the only upside is that even the mosquitos find it too cold to come out !!
