warm and rainy early evening in town
pleasant ending
to a relaxed day with friends
between the holidays
good balm for the soul
feels almost like spring
later tonight
once we’re all home again
temperature drops
snow squalls and winds arrive
reminding us that winter is here.

We often are told that time with friends is a gift we give them, but I’ve always thought that it’s a gift we give ourselves more than them. Glad you’re gifting yourself!

That’s a lovely quote, and appropriate for your outing with friends. We have rain forecast for later this week, and I will take that over snow.
Best wishes, Pete.

The holidays are great to get together with friends, even with the wintry weather! Had a similar get together last night and with freezing rain too. Fun times!!!
