Blue Hill.
It’s been kind of mild around here lately. Oh, we’ve had a few single-digit nights, but all in all that whole climate change thing looks to be legit. Sun today, then some clouds moved over. A high temperature of about 40 degrees (F). Jack and I took an afternoon hike up Beech Hill, and the trail was nice and muddy. Chickadees up there, and a flock of robins flew over. Heard a tree sparrow on our way back down.

Horizon.
Balmy out, really. Not that I’m complaining.
