Spring is upon us... but it seems to be a sort of incongruous spring for some reason. Perhaps it's just me, or perhaps it's just from not being quite used to South-central Wisconsin yet. Some trees are budding, while others are not, and a few flowering shrubs are blooming. The daffodils are starting to bloom, and the tulips are finally starting to bud as well. Perhaps things seem unusual due to a lack of the familiar spring sights I'm used to: trilliums, wood violets, and marsh marigolds.
Friday was a truly beautiful day -- the high reached 81° F at least. I was very fortunate to have the day off, but spent much of the day running errands or doing housework in preparation of our move. Saturday was a fine day as well, though I had to work in the morning. Maryanne and I spent the afternoon running some additional errands, and it was quite a pleasant day.
Sunday was another matter. The day started well enough, but quickly headed downhill as the remnants of a storm moved through, bringing with it a lot of wind, but very little in the way of much-needed rain.
