One thing I noticed here in Michigan is that even though the winters are really long and cold, everyone seems to appreciate being outside during the other seasons a whole lot more. This week finally melted all of our snow (I think there are still very small piles in the shadows) with temperatures being mostly in the high 40s, some days in the 50s, and even one day in the 60s! Everyone and their dog, literally, was outside. We get to see our neighbors again, who we haven't seen in a few months. This week we went on a few walks, rode our bikes, played in the sandbox, played on our swing set, and went to the zoo. I don't think I've ever appreciated the beginnings of spring more than this year, after a particularly long winter. Even the ducks, who are seen roaming around in pairs in people's yards during spring, were already out and about.
Happy Spring!
