Peepers!

Everyone has their own "sign of spring", the thing that signals winter is really over. For me it's the Peepers, a.k.a. the Wood Frog, Rana sylvatica. I head them over behind W.C.S., along the bike path, while I was out running. It reminded me that I'm lucky to live in a place where the rhythm of the seasons is signaled by such simple thing. (It also didn't hurt that it was ~70 degrees today...)

I've got my T-shirt, shorts and sandals on (yep, with white socks), and I'm ready for Summer. BRING IT ON!

Please tell me that you threw in that white socks bit just to get a rise out of me, as I thought that Anna and I had succeeded in at least talking some fashion sense into you...

Yes, the "white socks" comment was gratuitous and untrue. Just checking to see if you're really reading or not.

How could I keep myself away?
