Breezy Balmy December Friday Walk Around Beautiful Sikes Lake


 On this second Friday of the final month of 2023, it was back to Midwestern State University I ventured, for a salubrious walk around Sikes Lake, joining throngs of others doing the same.

The locals were out in droves due to the perfect weather conditions. Temperature in the 70s, with a steady wind blowing in the 20-mph range, with gusts into the 40-mph range.

I do not know what the wind speed's windchill effect made those 70 some degrees really feel like. What I do know is the outer world felt extremely pleasant today.

In today's photo documentation you are at the east end of Sikes Lake, looking west. You can see the wind is making waves on the lake. Not quite big enough for surfing, but enough wave action to keep the water birds, the geese, duck and seagulls, grounded.

Today will be the last warm day for awhile. A cold front blows in tomorrow...
