Winter

It was 23 degrees outside this morning at 5:25 A.M as I took my first walk of the day. Why do we torture ourselves with this winter time misery year after year? When not so very far away there are warm breezes and lush green landscapes, I hear South America calling my name (at the very least Florida or Arizona). Oh well at least there is a beautiful sun rise this morning, even if it only serves to illuminate my frosty breath.
