Warming up

I strongly believe we have had our last "cold" day. It just seems like the spring is here to stay. Looking at the weather report for the coming 10 days I think I am correct, it is not showing any upcoming days with anything lower than 25 C.

Right now it is actually colder inside our house than outside, due to our new stone floors. Great in the summer, it really helps keeping the house cool. Now I am actually having doors and windows open to let the 22 C and rising temperatures in... Good Florida houses have bug screens on all windows; no bugs get in and no dogs can get out... Good the dogs don't know they just have to push hard and the bug screens will pop out... Right now they are happy to lay on a chair and just sniff the breeze and watch people go by!

Bob has a great view out the office window; he can see two streets and the side walk right in front of our house. Plus the (southern) live oak (called "Virginiaek" in Swedish) right outside the window is the home of a rather large family of squirrels. Lots of things to keep track of! The bug screens are great, you really don't see them much, you can barley see them in this picture, but the lower part of the window is covered with a mesh screen.
