Friday brought Lexington a dose of sunshine and much warmer temperatures. It was a nice break from the nearly constant rain; a number of front yards sported people sitting on porches or doing much-needed garden work. On Friday Kurt and I were offered mixed drinks, plant trimmings for planting outside, and Lysol. We each accepted a bottle of Lysol, grateful for our fellow Lexingtonians.
