Well, we are getting the cold front coming through here but it sure isn’t anywhere near as bad as at home, the high I saw today was 61F, which is still pleasant but the wind was out of the north and quite cool.

This afternoon we went out looking for new running shoes, John managed to find two pairs and I didn’t get any so I will just have to keep on looking. We made a quick stop at Wal Mart on the way home and that was our excitement for today. At Wal Mart we ran into the couple who were behind us last winter, this winter they are staying in Welton which is about 30 miles east of here and they seem to be enjoying it there but the RV Park is right on the Interstate so I imagine it would be quite noisy.

Tonight we talked to our son Mike and then to our friends Mike & Margie who just got back from 4 weeks in Florida. They had good weather the first two weeks, so so the third week and they said the last week was downright cold – what a shame but at least on the whole it was fairly nice.

We are watching the news, they are doing a piece on the Ottawa transit strike and it looks darn cold, sure am glad we are here and not there!

And so ends another great gift of a day in the sunny south and we look forward to another good day tomorrow.
