Been working in Brownsville, Tx for the past week (yea, I thought I was retired too!).
Went in wearing a jacket - then changed to shorts. Had the AC on most of the time. When the sun goes down it gets cold fast - don't get caught at sunset with shorts on!
Home in Rockport today - cool, overcast and a good day to stay in and have more coffee. Not sure I like "un-retiring", they'll work you tail off if you let 'em.

Bit more rain over night but looks like our great run of nights in the mid 40's and day time temps around 80 is about to come to an end.
Max of 48 for Thursday with up to 8" snow for the higher country, not what you expect 1 week out from summer in Aus but not unheard of.

I live in South Texas. Yesterday I had to drive to Brownsville - the bottom of Texas, on the border with Mexico. On the way down the traffic reminded me of the Daytona 500 race. 75 mph speed limit - most were doing 90 and weaving in and out...I felt luck to make it.
On the way back north I could see the southbound traffic. It was bumper to bumper, had slowed to about 25 mph and there were wrecks everywhere...this went on for 90 miles. People going back to Mexico for Thanksgiving.
I'm sure happy I made it home safely and have nothing to do today but drink coffee, eat turkey and watch football.
Happy Thanksgiving!

30 degrees, going to low forties. Rain predicted.
Supposed to help step son move some things this morning and we may hunt together this afternoon.

Coffee with a touch of Amaretto for flavoring in a John Deere mug.

I hope your day goes well. Tell us about it tonight over an adult beverage in that section.
