What a great feeling on the that first day after the spring time change, when you get the extra hour of light at night. It always makes you feel like spring is just around the corner. Add to that the warm sunny day we had today (it was 8C when I arrived today in Chicago), and you can't help but feel like the winter is coming to an end. It looks like I will fulfill my goal this year of not touching a snow shovel for the entire winter.
I'm back in Bloomington again. There's not much to do or many places to eat, but now that it's light a little bit later, maybe I'll swing by the hotel on Washington St. to see if they still have the room full of lamp shades. If so I'll take a picture and post it here. It's really something. Other than that I have no plans other than to pick up a nice bottle of wine at Friar Tuck's (a really good liquor store in Bloomington with a stellar selection of wines).

Seriously? Did you even get the idea that you had a winter at all? :P
I am having construction done or I would be home by now. I miss so much not experiencing that feeling of spring arriving. AND we can't have that feeling without a winter. It is almost as good as that melancholy feeling in October of feeling the approach of winter. Our lives as Canadians revolve around winter and make us special. Uncle Ron
