Absolutely gorgeous here today! Sunny, mid 60's, people outside everywhere enjoying the day. More like early spring than mid-winter, but I checked the calender and, yes it's still January. Just a few days ago it was bone chilling cold and I was all set to hibernate with my comfort food and catch up on some reading. But instead I found myself outdoors, walking Raven, and watching kids play kickball. Sure looks like spring to me. But by 5pm, it was getting dark outside, a little reminder of what season it really is. But I really don't mind the winter, it's a good time to catch up on things that need to be done indoors, and believe me there's plenty that needs to be done here. But I will take advantage of any "spring break" that comes my way.

A Taste Of Spring

i heard about some of the unseasonally mild temperatures in some areas. enjoy it while you can... you know it's not going to last :]
btw, the picture you have posted has always been one of my favorite paintings.
I remember seeing this painting in Chicago-it was fairly large and made up of all these tiny dots. Truly amazing painting and one of my favorites also.
We have been having a warm winter too... 60's this week! Crazy!
