not long,

not long at all (of us waiting, that is).

It may not look that much like spring, but today sure felt like spring.

We had a picnic at the park with friends for lunch.

Played outside all afternoon (after naps).

And had a picnic in the backyard for dinner.

There is nothing like a day spent outside to boost everyones' spirits.

I wore flip-flops and my feet were so dirty from working in the yard that I had to clean them in the tub when I came in. It took me back to the days of walking the streets of NY in the summer.
