Bloom where you are planted

My biggest challenge living in Austin is the weather.  While others relish in our mild winters and our sunny days, I long for the change of seasons, the crispness of the first frost and the excitement of the first snow fall of the year. I love going outside on chilly days and if I lived in MI I'd have long hair, because I don't mind wearing it down.

I work daily....or at least I try, to bloom where I am planted.  But I must say, I'd rather be stuck inside for 3 months due to the snow than 70+ days of 100 degree record breaking temperatures.  And come to think of it, I wouldn't be stuck inside in the winter for months on end, I'd be sledding, skiing, walking and throwing snowballs.  When it's 110 outside, all you can really do is swim in a pool so warm it feels like bath water.

What does this have to do with our trip to Portugal?  WEATHER!!  I am so excited!  Check out this forecast for our first few days in Porto!
