I nearly posted a photo of blue sky earlier. Blue sky is something that’s been mighty scarce since we arrived in El Lay. We’ve had heavy overcast, torrential rain, and if my MIdwestern ears are still attuned, a brief bit of hail since we got here.
Our daughter has a breezeway, to which the smokers are relegated when they feel the urge to light up. Wind tunnel would be a much more accurate description. And a bone-chilling, stindeens numbing wind at that.
Today, the sun shines, the temperature climbs into the upper 70’s, and it’s our last day here. It was sufficiently cold earlier in the week that I asked my little bride, on one of her and our daughter’s outings, to please bring back something for me in XXL, long-sleeved, and warm. The local *-Marts had one item in men’s long sleeves, and in XL at that. It said Myrtle Beach on the front.
What a country.
