Spring is Coming

A couple of weeks ago, we had a brief warm spell here in California. Warm enough for me to put the top down on my car as I drove to a superbowl party. And after a couple of weeks of cold and rain, today is another warm day. Again I'm driving around with the top down.

But it feels different.

I don't know exactly why. Something in the air. Maybe a faint odor of pollen or chlorophyll that I can only sense subconsciously. But two weeks ago, what we had was a warm day in winter. Today, what we have feels like the very first sign of spring.

It's a good day.
