Sunday was just like Saturday (although we did have some high, thin clouds in the morning): clear, sunny, unseasonably warm and no snow. It was literally 61F at our house when H got home from skiing at Alta. Where dudes were skiing in t-shirts. On the 8th day of February. I mean, it's awfully nice for walking but holy hell there are WEEDS ACTIVELY GROWING and Utah's reservoirs are going to be in dire straits if something doesn't change soon. At least H did remember to put on sunscreen.
All whilst bemoaning the current non-winter, A and M had a very productive Dimple Dell walk Sunday morning. We helped a guy find his lost phone. We saw four chonky mule deer (one buck with antlers (which, shouldn't those have shed this fall?) and three does). We met a nine year old rez dog rescue named Snow, originally from Farmington, NM, who was lovely. And then once we got back home, Milton once again basked in the sun in the driveway all afternoon.
Meanwhile, inside the house, A made a red lentil soup, meal-prepped her breakfasts and lunches for the next two days, baked chocolate chip cookies (because H is addicted to them) and baked that olive bread that had been started the day before.
