It's been so gloriously sunny with bright blue skies this week. 

I'm soaking it up.

This was taken on Tuesday outside the Anchorage Library.

The boys were "ice skating" in their boots over this large frozen puddle.

Notice the lack of snow. The weather got "warm" last week. Up into the low 40's even some days and what little snow we had is pretty much gone.

It's cold again this week. Highs have been in the teens.

The sunshine made me think it was warmer than it was when we headed out on Tuesday. It was only 14 degrees.

Not quite time to pack away the winter coats!
