Just in time for the first day of spring, the weather started warming up on Friday with highs near fifty degrees during the day. It was windy, but we were still able to have a bonfire and enjoy the evening outside. The temperatures only increased as the weekend continued. Yesterday Doug was able to plant grass and get out the furniture for the backyard. We took an hour long walk through Oakwood and along the WACF trail. It was gorgeous.
Today Cameron spent a good portion his time outside. Maxwelton opened for the season this morning and Cameron got in his first round of nine holes there before lunch time. Bailee drove over for the afternoon. They took advantage of the warm temperatures by getting out the IU corn hole boards and playing basketball in the driveway before watching the Wisconsin game. I was even able to take Rizzo outside for a little while. He wasn't quite as excited about it as I was, but it was fun just the same (except when he got his nose stuck in the bars). Afterward Doug and I took another long walk, this time closer to home, before he grilled out for dinner.
The next few days look just as nice with highs reaching close to seventy degrees. I definitely plan to take multiple walks and enjoy the sunshine as much as possible. I realize that this won't last through the entire spring, but after the February we had, I sure do appreciate this beautiful weather.
