Another Sunny Winter Day in Phoenix

 

Another Sunny Winter Day in Phoenix

Alas we local Phoenicians are suffering through the brutal winter weather by making difficult choices. Should we spend the afternoon on the golf course or perhaps go for a hike?  Or maybe a nice lunch on the patio?  So many excellent choices!

 

My husband is stuck at an airport back east somewhere.  He just texted and said they have to go back in to re-fuel and de-ice.....yet again.  Needless to say he's looking forward to getting back home sometime today, hopefully.  Before you go all nuts on me about bragging about our lovely winer weather - take a deep breath!!  I grew up in MN and it was darn cold up there.  I feel for all you living through the brutal cold weather back east. I really do.

I think about this type of weather all summer long - LOL - it is what I live for!  I am never happier than when I have a chance to bring out the cold weather gear, load up the fireplace and hope for a foot of snow.  

Of course, I am the person who swears she has never slept better than in the 25 degree Ice Hotel in Quebec one winter a few years ago.

I live in the deep south and it's stupid cold right now.  25 and dropping.  Ridiculous.  I keep telling myself... it will be warm again on Tuesday, it will be warm again on Tuesday.

Tough choices Anna, we are not stuck with either of those choices as we enjoy a nice blustery week up north.

With twelve degree temperatures right now in Northern Virginia, I must say, Phoenix is sounding like wonderland.

Myrl Jeffcoat 9 degree pool? Now that sounds lovely way to start a day!

Michael Thornton hang in there....I heard you guys are really getting socked in.

Bob Crane oh my to look at that weather map is remembering growing up in MN and not thinking it was 'that bad'! Bundle up if you got out...and drink lots of hot chocolate.

Hi Anna, I grew up in Buffalo NY, Martinsville, NJ and Pittsburgh, PA so I can sympathize with all those currently experiencing mother natures colder side. I don't think I could survive in any of those places today, I'm so spoiled!

Anna, I am sure your hunny is home by now. Gosh how I remember my corporate travel days ... airport delays ...

So glad I don't have to board plans for a living anymore.
