Beautiful Sunday

It's as beautiful a day as we've seen in months. Blue sky, sunshine, warm breezes. Spring is here.


The weather is so nice, in fact, that I put Marco in his tall skinny cage and wheeled him out to the porch to sit with me and the dogs and soak up some sunshine and fresh air. It's his first visit to our new screened porch. Every time one of the dogs walk past he says "Hey Georgie! Hey Gingerbread!" so I think he likes it out here! Getting outside every now and then is going to be so good for him.

This sunshine is good for me.  A local meteorologist posted on Facebook yesterday that since September it's rained 18 out of 25 weekends!  All I want to do today is sit outdoors and bask. And now that the time has changed we'll have much later sunsets to enjoy from the porch. If today is any indication, maybe the time change is heralding the arrival of better (drier) weather and more of these beautiful spring days.

The view of the porch from the back fence. Just look at that blue sky!

    Perhaps you should teach Marco some new lines in case Mr Grumpy calls round again..."Stick em up!", "Howdy Methuselah!", "WOOF! WOOF! WOOF!" and "I'm a good Christian parrot!"

    Spring is on the way. In Virginia, the temps got up into the low 60s and it didn't rain today. We have had tons of rain too.

    Our birds always like a little fresh air as well, good for Marco. No spring here yet.

    Could Marco fly around in your porch? It seems to have netting all around.

    It got up to 82 today, but I know we'll have a few more chilly days. Or at least chilly for Florida. If you let Marco out of his cage, does he poop all over the place?

    Love,
    Janie

    I love your screened in porch. It must feel great to sit in it and enjoy some early spring weather. It was rain and heavy fog here today but good, warm days are in our future.

    I'm glad you got to enjoy such a beautiful day, after all the less than nice things that have been happening to you at work. The sun can do such a lot to raise one's spirits, can't it!
