December 2011 has been an exceptionally mild month here in the Northern Virginia / DC Metro area. The vast majority of the days have made it up into the 50's and we've even cracked 60 once or twice. The nights have rarely dipped into the 30's with even fewer in the 20's. All in all, it's been very pleasant weather (if you are not a skier, that is :-) And I am definitely not!)
I woke up early today and after a nice cuppa joe, headed out with the boys on a long walk......
Any temps over freezing is fair game to Wilson. He LOVES the water and fetching sticks.

This next one has a neat little rainbow happening thanks to the morning mist and rising sun. I didn't even notice until I loaded the pictures to my PC.

And saving my favorite for last, Jimmy enjoying
his rope swing once again. I love how the light worked in this shot and how you can see the cloud of Jimmy's breath rising.
