It’s just like spring

We’ve been having spring-like weather, so I haven’t been nearly as inclined to sit at the computer as I have been all winter.

By spring, by the way, I mean “it’s 40 degrees and enough ice has melted that I can see the sidewalk again.”

That’s right. Forget green grass and daffodils: I’m celebrating the return of concrete.

We are almost certainly bound to get another couple of snow storms before it all goes away, but who cares? It’s warm now, and that’s good enough for me.

(I can practically see the expressions of disbelief that anyone would celebrate 40 degrees as warm. It’s all relative, I tell you. After months of sub-zero and single digit temps, this is practically heaven. Add thirty degrees to your current temperature. See? Big difference.)

Now that I’m all warmed up and am over the novelty of warmer weather, maybe I’ll get caught up on everything in the blog sphere I’ve been letting slide… or not. It’s warm enough I can start riding again, after all. And that is almost as exciting as the little patch of sidewalk in front of the house.
