95 E300 Diesel High idle

so... after i took the last pictures on the beach, i came home rinsed my car off... got back in, started it... && it suddenly idled @ like 1100 or so vs the ~600 i'm used to... my first thought was OMFG i have a runaway.
but i watched for a second && it didn't move
opened the hood... fiddled w/ the throttle a bit... went back to the norm... felt all cables & tracks in that region linked to similar parts everything felt okay...

being in florida & 65 degrees... is there some odd reason my car felt like it needed to do so?

anyone else have this happen?
