Hello Spring

Spring has opened up beautifully.  Yesterday, its first day, the skies were clear and the temperatures were comfortable.  In the evening, while we disappointedly watched Mason get destroyed by Ohio State, we had the windows open.  The air was cool, but fresh and not the cold air of winter.

This morning, on the way to work, there was a huge rainstorm, accompanied by a little thunder and lots of lightning.  It was dark and menacing, but by mid-morning it had cleared off and by the time I left to come home, it was nice enough for windows down in the car.

I am joyed by blooming daffodils and the trees beginning to bud.  It’s a rejuvenating time of year and my spirits are high.  I just hope this spring we’re experiencing moves north soon and melts the snow that’s still a part of the lives of those of you reading in New England!
