I played OUTSIDE!

went out to see how warm it was...

and its just amazing even at 42F...

and this was a disaster...

so I started in...

and Craig followed me out...

there was a whole trashcan full of boxes sitting here...

just waiting to be tossed...

gone...

and I straightened, put away and fluffed...

as much as you can on a day like this and for this time of the year...

and THEN!

A WALK!

 a real live walk...

in chair, of course...

and the snow is all gone out there...

a little bit of wind, but not much...

I sat out here for a little bit...

in a sweater!

I remember this...

and this...

as cleaned up as it can be for now...

way too soon to be getting a bucket of water...

and dragging the hose out...

but I'l take it!

see, bits of snow left here and there...

where it was piled high...

got to sand and paint the railing as soon as it warms up for good...

saying bye bye to winter...

BYE BYE!

;)

sunrise...

started taking photos while the street lights were still on...

we have a pretty good frost going on...

24F

but soon enough, the sun peaked over the horizon...

with the promise of a spring day...

forecast- 53F...

I can't wait to get out there and soak up some rays...

whatever was wrong with my stomach has passed...

most of it literally...

and after a shower when DH got home...

I could do supper...

I was so hungry by then...

well, the sun is up enough right now that the red has been replaced by gold...

and the longer its out, the warmer its going to get...

still have some snow up against the house and where it was piled up...

but that should all be gone after today...

I want to peek under the leaves and see if anything is popping through yet...

probably not...

but I'm going to look anyway...

;)

have a fun day...

God's making this one extra pretty already...

;)
