Hi Mary.
The pictures are great - very clear. See, you're already a pro at blogging!
So, is it going to be this cold for awhile or is it just a cold snap? Do they get snow there?
It has been in the 90's here and very humid, until the remnants of hurricane Ike blew over and ended the heat wave.
Take care, and be sure to "pull over" from now on when changing music on your ipod!!
