It's been spitting snow off and on since I woke up this morning. Those big
flakes were beautiful this afternoon. I wish it would be gone permanently.

I'm sitting here next to an open window. Ambient temps have been hovering
around 70F for days now. It's been sunny with clear blue skies (a few
cirrus clouds drifting around) during the day and a big bright moon shining
at night above trees draped in Spanish moss. Don't hate me

OB Food: Spanish moss is related to pineapples. Go figure.
