I sort of miss cold weather. I got to wear a winter jacket in
January! A couple of times!

It seems it is always warm and humid here. People have been telling me
for years it doesn't rain here. Well, I'm looking at the sky right now.
The wind has been tossing around the trees. The Spanish moss is
dancing from the live oaks. There is occasional sun. It is humid, too.
I can tell it's going to rain. <G> It does this every year in
May/June/July. Late afternoon evening showers or thunderstorms.

I don't have a covered outdoor space so I won't sit outside to smoke.
