Spring

It's about 7:45 AM, Eastern Daylight Time, as I write this, and it's a glorious spring morning outside my study window.

At the end (I hope) of a typically wet and miserable Northern Virginia winter, I always look forward to spring: to air that (at least early in the morning) is fresh and cool, and to the sounds of birds singing happily in the trees. This is one of the best times of year in this area, when the mornings are cool and the afternoons pleasantly warm, when you can go outdoors without gasping in the damp heat that makes you think you need a snorkel just to walk down the street.

No deep thoughts today - just a few words of appreciation for a season that makes you feel good to be alive. Enjoy it!

Have a good day. More thoughts tomorrow.
