    Rare warm day!

    Today, Feb 7th 2009 here in Iowa as a rule should be frozen and well below freezing. This day it was 55 degree. It was great for getting our girl "Lucky"(Radix) out for some exercise and fresh air. These kind of days don't happen very often, so I thought I would share a few photos from our little adventure.

    Nice photos, Steve and I know what you mean about the weather. It's been in the teens here lately, but today it's currently 68 degrees F.

    Great pics Steve. The weather has been gorgeous here today, too. Took a nice long walk along a creek with the dog earlier

    I was almost 70 here today! I'm loving it. I didn't take any snakes out but did put the turtles outside all day, and the little buggers went right to mating!!! LOL Spent most of the day outside with the critters. Gorgeous day. :-)
