So here's the short of it, 
The weather was nice and the day was pleasant enough...

And here's the long.

This was a nice start to the week.  I do wish for a bit more winter weather.  It's just a little early for springtime, but it looks like it's coming whether we're ready or not.  The Farmer's Almanac seems to say that the really cold weather is just done for.  I fear that we are going to be plagued by fleas and other bugs this summer since we had so little cold weather.  I know our pets really won't like that one little bit.

But as for me, not having to head to work in the cold will be just fine. It does look like there will be some cool/cold rainy days this spring according to the Farmer's Almanac
