Near record highs Tuesday, temp report. & New Camera!

A late green Boxwood bush planting I had Nov 10th this bush will hold it's green leaves through the entire Winter! Taken with my new Cannon camera!

After a record breaking year in the temp department, we continue to be wowed in this same department! High temperatures have been well above normal the past 4 days, but Tuesday highs were near record warmth. Under sunny skies, temperatures sored to summer-like levals in the upper 60s. Some places even managed a 70.F reading, I had my windows open enjoying the fresh November air! This warm air is all thanks a system which is pushing warm air northward. My aunt who was visiting my grandparents in Alabama said it was almost nicer here then it was down there!

Highs reported Tuesday.

Tuesday the highest temperature was from Hudson a very mild 70.F, while the coolest reading was in Spooner and in Balsam Lake at 64.F.Average highs for this time of year are in the lower to mid 40s!

New Camera!

Picture and video quality should be getting better here at my blog. I was able to get a new camera, replacing the one I had been using for the past 7 years, and the past 3 years here at my blog. This camera was well needed because my old one was slowing failing. The new one is a Cannon brand camera, which is able to set it's own settings to take the best picture, and record up an an hour of videos!
