The weather was beautiful today.

I went out for a three mile walk in the heat of the sun, and there was a warm breeze over everything. It was lovely.

I also found time to take the Hammock outside and string it up between two trees. I curled up there for maybe a half an hour. I didn’t sleep, but I almost did. It was lovely.

My eyelids are a tad sunburned. They’re cranking, just a little pink.

Tonight I am sleeping with my window open for the first time since October.

Tomorrow is supposed to be even more lovely than today was. In spite of all of the school things, I’m looking forward to it.

Maybe this is only a false Spring. A now-you-see-me, now-you-don’t March parade of days that are only going to fade back into the cold again.

But whatever this is, whatever it’s been, it has lifted my spirits.

And small green shoots poking through the ground speak to hope of warmer days, coming. Barefoot days, campfire days, days spent out on the water or up in the trees.

It has been too long.

I hope it’s a good night and I love you.
