Spring is Here!

Here's a poem I heard ages ago:

Spring has Sprung!
The grass is Ris'!
I wonder where the Birdies Is?

It feels right for today. Just a few days ago here in the San Francisco Bay Area we had hard rain and showers, even thunderstorms, which are rare for this area. Today though the world had decided to fully flaunt springtime. All the trees were budding out and the grass is thick and green. So lovely! A fitting day on which to start Spring Break.

I'm traveling out to Baltimore to see friends and relatives this week. I'l be there all Spring Break but it still feels like a whirlwind trip because I have so many people to see. It also looks like the weather will be much colder, maybe even snow on Saturday, when we are planning on going to the cherry blossom festival in D.C. It would be neat to see snow-flurries against the blooms, as long as not many are knocked off. Should be fun in any case.

I'll try to keep you updated on my trip.
