Yeah for flip flops!

Things that happened today that let me know spring is here:

* Kids riding their bikes in shorts and t-shirts.

* Hearing wind chimes while walking past a house down the street.

* A bug of some kind buzzing past my head.

* People standing outside their homes talking to neighbors.

* College kids (Bowdoin College is little over a mile away. And I drive by it a lot!) sitting and relaxing in every grassy area on campus.

* People lined up at the ice cream car in the center of town.

* Most cars I passed driving to Wal-Mart had their windows down.

* The landscaping crew was up bright and early this morning working on our lawns.

* I busted out my flip flops!!

Today was a great day! I didn't do anything exciting. I didn't go anywhere exciting. I just took a deep breath, took in the day and enjoyed the sunshine. I even enjoyed all the little kids outback (There is a playground right out back of our house.) laughing and carrying on loudly.

These are all good signs of a great spring/summer to come!
