Lilly : Seems like yesterday I was brushing snow off the deck.
Ronnie : So hot here, a guy converted to cut-offs on the street !
Lilly : You should have kept those for when the weather turns again, Ronnie.

Wonderfully done - so Lilly recognised part of your wardrobe! Gives us a whole new insight into your dress sense, Ronnie :)

Very cool! A pair of gumboots would have done too, especially for us western Europeans. :-)

From where I'm sitting flippers would have been more useful. Not just the big 'L' Ronnie but the little one too.

This is hilarious and appropriately titled with all the global warming news around. I must say Ronnie you could have cut a little more off of those converted cut-offs THEN give us a photo.
I love the foot prints in the snow. It reminds me of cooler days up north as we are having a heat wave which is part of life here in Florida.
BTW thank you for your "green" comment on my heron today you made me realize an error. Take a look if you like.
Hmmm, "gumboots" I will have to look that one up.

@Barbara: :
(from Ronnie) Thanks, Barbara ! Not sure what made me say 'green' in my Comment but glad it all worked out. 'Gumboots', I might call Wellingtons but I'm sure you call them something different again . . " two nations divided by a common language ", as Churchill once said !

funny thing is, i've used cut-off remnants before to block the draft that can leak in under the door in the dead of winter...
(they can also be used to clean up a an assortment of odd cat messes as well... or of course, you can just throw them away!)

Makes one think to say the least... although in the heat my thought processes are slower than usual... that's bad.

Opposition of cold and hot, nice juxtaposition. The climate changes will be a challenge...

I like the way this image looks like it is divided into four quadrants. Adds to the impact and interest. And then, dividing the quadrants again--like some patchwork quilts.
Re. "climate change." last year we had a hot summer and people kept saying it was evidence of climate change. This year we are having a cooler (and delightful) summer. What happened to climate change?
