But almost there. And I'm so excited I had to share it with Pops Weekly Letter. I just got back from a walk and see signs, little ones, that are hopeful. Just the fact that I was out for a walk, was one, and joined by at least two other people. And there's more. I saw bicycles and heard the pounding of a basketball outdoors. Even some birds, other than crows. This week we saw the temperature climb above freezing for the first time in weeks. And we were even able to go outside without a coat or gloves. And, of course, the fact that it's light later helps a lot. It means it will be dark when we leave the house, but I think I can say with some confidence that that won't be lasting long.
Of course the fact that there were 13 trucks on the lake tonight means we have a ways to go, especially with snow scheduled for later this week. But I'm ready to mow some grass! We have been so eager for that moment, that we have started to fill up our summer with plans, and they all have a common theme: water. Assateague, Green Lake, Lake George. What's wrong with the lake across the street? Nothing, but it's missing you all.
Mary had good news on her tutoring front as the young boy she's been working with has made great progress, getting close to grade level in math and reading. Looks like she will be able to pick up working with his two older brothers as well.
We have a couple of late birthday wishes for Daniel and Lur. Hope you each had spectacular days.
A short one this week, but had to share with you our springtime feelings.
Love from up here.
