Yesterday we drove to the beach and ate breakfast in the car. That’s what we do now. Feed the birds and eat breakfast in the car. So many people do that here, it’s kind of funny.
I would never drive to the beach on a warm day and eat breakfast in the car but somehow when the sun is shining and it’s 25 degrees out, it just feels right.
You can hear the waves crashing, it’s cozy in the car and it truly feels like spring is right around the corner.
Sun therapy. That’s what it is. I can’t believe the first day of spring is less than a month away!
I also can’t believe that people surf in freezing cold water.
Hardy. That’s what Mainers are. Or just plain crazy, I’m not sure.
Here in Maine they have little machines {that someone drives around town} that clear the sidewalks.
Well, after a big storm anyway.
Some areas are kept up better than others but mostly if the sun is out and it’s not super windy, people are out walking.
I don’t go out walking in this sort of weather unless I’m in my Selk bag. The HH says I look like a total nutter and he’s embarrassed to be seen with me but I totally don’t care.
It’s warm! And when it’s 25 degrees outside I kind of think that’s all that matters.
Fact: There are way bigger snow piles in town than this one.
I enjoyed breakfast at the beach so much yesterday, I think I’m going to do it again today.
Winter. Do I really want it to end? I don’t know. I’m just glad I live in a place with four real seasons.
It’s like we get the best of everything here in Maine.

The seagull picture is awesome! I think you are smart to wear that plus it looks to have some cushion in case of a fall. I have never heard of it before. I like that the pants can be zipped off. I’ve needed something to go play in the rare snow here.
Does the fabric breathe? or get too hot?

It Selk bag keeps me nice and toasty and I haven’t really had a problem overheating. It’s basically like wearing a sleeping bag. You can unzip the side vents on the legs if you need to.
