shiny, icy

It was 18 degrees out when I got home from my brisk walk tonight; compared to yesterday it felt positively warm. It's pretty amazing what a difference the wind makes. Today's light wind and 10 degrees higher temps made it much more comfortable.

The tricky part of my wander was for me to remember that the shiny spots on the ground were very slippery ice and not water. Luckily most of the pavement was dry and my feet stayed beneath me.
