As photo documented above, it was to Lucy Park I drove today to commune with nature, on this third Thursday of 2023.
I was last at Lucy Park on Monday, Martin Luther King Day. That day was warm. Upper 70s. That return to summer lasted til Wednesday morning. Late in the afternoon on Tuesday I was able to go on a real long bike ride without getting cold.
And then winter returned.
It was barely 50 when I arrived at Lucy Park this morning.
I was attired in insulating winter wear, including the lined sweat pants a kind soul sent me for Christmas, worrying that I was not keeping warm enough.
The above photo is those aforementioned lined sweat pants, without me in them. I think it would be difficult to get cold wearing these.
The current 15 day forecast has us getting into February without a return to near zero temperatures. It was in February, two years ago, that the infamous Texas blackout happened, with the temperature near zero.
I really do not want another near zero experience. Or snow. Or an Ice Storm.
I have become an elderly fuddy duddy...
