You look out your door and see this...
And you don't live anywhere near the water!
It's one of my favorite seasons...
ALMOST-SPRING!
You know, that time of year that the sun shines, the snow melts,
you dream of going to the river and sitting around the camp fire,
pedaling the pedal boat and kayaking the kayaks...
You head up the stairs to get out your summer clothes...
You wonder if you can use the reflection of the sun
off your winter-white legs to blind the neighbors...
You get out the razor weed wacker and get ready to deforest those white legs,
all the while dreaming of fresh fruit smoothies and life on the boat dock...
You pass the living room window and look out,
SURE you will see flowers blooming.
Instead, you see...
which turns into...
Dirty snow!
And then you start the cycle over again...
and once more,
and maybe even one more time!
So when Mr. K told us that he had to go out of town,
but that they were bringing the boat home and would we please be here to tell them where to park it...
We, the family that dreams of water...said,
"Heck Yes!!!!"
So Andy came (Ashley and Locklan were already here)
just in time to see a super cool guy named Chad rounding the cul-de-sac.
Of course, the boat gets top billing...
Out of the garage comes my car...and into the garage goes...
It's all good, though.
It's too cold to put the docks in the water...
So the boat has to displace my car stay here for a few days...
But we're optimists!
Last night, during a rather pleasant ALMOST-SPRING evening...
Tony and I opened the garage door...
Climbed into the boat...
and had the first boat party of the year!
~sigh~
Happy ALMOST-SPRING!
