TEE SHIRT AND SHORTS WEATHER YESTERDAY AND TODAY BUT IT'S GOING TO COOL A BIT.

Osoyoos had the high temperature in Canada yesterday setting a record for the day at 22+C.  We  had 24C/76F on the car and our house thermometers.  When I looked out this morning, three daffodils were out.  By this afternoon several more had opened.

Whatcha looking at?
