Heeeee. Illinois weather is CRAZY.
So, In general, we've been hovering around the high-30s to the low 40s. Cold, but not unpleasant. Then Monday, it was (drum roll please!) 65 degrees out! it was warm and muggy, and it rained hard. We ended up spending about an hour just sitting in the car doing some extra planning because of lightning warnings. A tornado Jumped over Harvard, and we made plans to help out if there was, in fact, any tornado damage.
So, then Tuesday, we had a high of (drum roll again:) 34 degrees. VERY cold: the humidity made a huge difference. We got to the evening, and as things began to frost over, and even though it was actually colder. it began to feel warmer, because the moisture was freezing out of the air. We were lucky we didn't have to tract all day, because you stand outside for a few minutes and your toes go numb.
Now it's just plain cold. We’re in full-on winter. We’re looking forward to going shovel-tracting, though.
Not much going on, we're just perfecting our finding techniques. I've got a boatload of pictures to send you, and I hope to have time tomorrow to send them to you.
Hope you're turkey day is the best.
Items to add to the Christmas list:
- Wa-mart gift card (we do 90% of our shopping there, and they have an AMAZING collection of fedoras this year. I'm going to take a picture and send it to you.)
- A pillow of any size shape or age. I don't really have one, and the one I have here is a little too flat.
