It’s a gorgeous day here in north central Texas. I love love love the color of the sky in the winter. It’s such a stunning shade of blue.

Oh, a Most Excellent idea, Olivia! I really do need to get that scarf finished.
Who do you think won this round?

Why did I take a picture of a mismarked manhole and WHY am I explaining how it’s mismarked? Because
