Daytime temp started at 56 degrees this morning. Now, at noon, it’s 42. Our norther approaches. Good thing we have no livestock at the rancho to get under shelter. Only faucets to drip.
Even Mr. Boy, who usually joins his peers in wearing basketball shorts to school in the winter (don’t ask) wore long trousers this morning. Although not jeans. Jeans seem to be passe, here in our version of the Texas burbs. No kickers in sight.
Who knows? Tomorrow, when it’s forecast be in the 30s a.m. with rain and continuing the rest of the daylight hours (before dropping into the 20s overnight with only overcast) he might even wear a coat.
It’s a macho thing, presumably, though I have seen girls his age (thirteen) doing it, too. At my age I wear two layers when its only in the 60s. 😉
