It's 60 degrees. In mid January. In Nebraska.

I am so looking forward to spring (my favorite season of all). Our current mild temps have me longing for days of warm breezes where I can sit on the front porch and soak up the sun all afternoon. Can't wait to clear the dead brush from the gardens, spread a little mulch and make daily checks for green buds on the bushes. Crocuses will come up first, then daffodils and tulips. The neighborhood will be buzzing with children playing, college students and downtowners biking to their destinations and young men who play their car stereos too loud. We'll invite the neighbors over for drinks on the porch and we'll get to see other neighbors for the first time since winter.

Ahhhh...

Can't wait for spring.
