Our morning began with clouds which then moved off to the north.  Now our sky is almost clear and it looks like it’s going to be a very nice day.  It could be a little warmer but it is lovely for late December.  This is the first day of our holiday warm-up, and temperatures on Christmas could reach the mid 50s.  This isn’t good for snow lovers but I think we’ll get our share before winter’s end.
