Got My Wish
Weeks ago when Gerry was planning an out west ski trip, deep in the heart of New York state winter, I said boldly...."For the week that you are away, I'm putting in my request for some 60 degree weather!" He laughed. That seemed utterly impossible. I got in my car a few minutes ago to go to the store, and lo and behold, it is 61 degrees today! I can't believe it. My request was heard! Got my wish!
It doesn't even matter that the temperatures are going to drop tonight and it is going to snow tomorrow. In the heart of a winter like this one, even half a day of spring-like weather is good for the soul!
I do hope, after all the effort to get there, that Gerry will have good skiing weather for his Utah trip.(and good weather coming home).
Surely, surely, the worst of it is behind us, and spring is on the way! I hope so. Here's another request---no more snow after March 15th!
