As a celebration, today we ate lunch on the back deck. Unfortunately, as you can see in the background, the pool is still covered and way too cold to go into. We will need at least a week’s worth of sunshine for it to heat up. We played tennnis today and it would have been so nice to jump in. Oh well, we shouldn’t be greedy. Maybe tomorrow there will be sitting on lounge chairs. We are taking baby steps away from the cold.
