Well I'm back. Back from Seattle, back from the wedding, and back from the longest period of time from not writing since I started my site. As to the trip, I had a blast. I thought I would have plenty of time to sit around and write when I was home, but I had barely enough time to even visit my daily sites and comment a few times. Total time on the internet was maybe two hours the whole five days I was home.
I'm going to hold off posting pictures and commentary about the trip until tomorrow. Right now I'm drained, disoriented due to the time difference, and catching up on five days of being without
But until tomorrow, I want to comment on one thing; how much this place has changed in just the five short days I've been gone.
Wednesday morning I was slipping on the ice taking our luggage to my car. There was still two good feet of snow piled in front of my car (down from around 5 feet). Waiting for the airport shuttle
Ellie and I were bundled up, watching our breaths as we smoked.
Fast forward to tonight, Sunday. In the airport and while waiting for the shuttle Ellie and I were hot under the same coats. As I pulled into my spot, I was surprised to see all the snow was gone. As I was walking from my car to my front door I stopped. I closed my eyes and took a long, deep breath. The smell was distinct and undeniable. Spring is here.
