The Luxury of Being Cold

First legitimately cold day of the year. The little house is holding up ok. I think it holds heat better than my old house in the Heights did. The dog and I took two long walks, shivered delightfully in the proximity of the Gulf twice today. The water looked brown. Yesterday it was blue. I like it either way. I don’t really like being cold, but sometimes, after a very long and hot summer, that first chill does feel like a luxury.

My Grackle painting found a good home. I’m thrilled that it gets to stay on the Island. Grackles are very happy here.
