News from Texas

We have been having some lovely warm days, but the cold front that has been up north is coming in here tonight. Of course, that doesn't mean below zero like Bemidji has had, but it will be around freezing at night and highs only in the 40's for the next 4 or 5 days. It will be rainy and damp, but in another week it will probably be a lot warmer again.
We attended a wonderful Corpus Christ Symphony Orchestra program last night. They had two winners of a young persons violin and piano competition that was held earlier. They were in their 20's and the young man played the Lizst piano concerto #1 and the young woman played the Mendelssohn violin concerto. They have great futures. We have tickets for two more concerts, one in Feb. and one in March. Our neighbors who are from SD went with us and we had dinner at the Outback before the concert. I am going to try to put a hummingbird picture on this blog but it may not work. We are having wonderful sightings of hummers, goldfinches who come to feeders right on our windows. Try to keep warm. It worked!
