Sunshine & Ice Cream

After days of cloudiness and rain, it was wonderful to see the sun today.  It is amazing how much this makes a difference in my day!  From the happiness I cannot help but feel to the songs that start going through my head...it was wonderful.

And since it was a rare warm day in January, it felt like it was in the mid 60's, when really I think it was more like 51 degrees. 

And so we went walking - at the canal trail by our house and then a bit downtown.

 

Plus we had wonderful friends in town, which is always a treat.  We finished our being out in the sun with ice cream (what else!?) from our favorite ice cream shop around here.
