Break Out the Hacky Sacks

Thank you, Jeebus for the sun and the 65 degrees and the NO RAIN today. Really. We are not cold weather people down here in the ATX. It just doesn't work for us. We like our nearly year-round patio dining and convertible driving weather, assuming we have patios and convertibles. And some of us, not me of course, actually like to run - for fun - in the hot, hot sun - and we can't do that when it's friggin' freezing outside. And there are only a few, a very few, nutcakes who will brave the icy waters to ski in weather like we've been having, so, let's just say winter's over, shall we? Enough is enough.

I drive through the park everyday to pick Peach up from GGMS, and today, it was swarming with happy joggers and dog people. And the patios of three of the restaurants I pass were full with drinkers and a few diners, all celebrating the return of the sun. And some dudes at one of those places were gearing up for a few rounds of hacky sack while they waited. I love this town.
