No Jacket!

The window shows me a gray sky, and Lake Nelson (our surname) is forming from gutter runoff--but I took the dog for a rainy walk with no jacket! I repeat, NO JACKET!! The temperature is almost 50 degrees F and most of the snow is gone. Wisconsin's winter is yielding under the return of the sun! It was a very refreshing, invigorating walk. I will pay homage to R. L. Stevenson on this early Spring Day:

"The Rain", by Robert Louis Stevenson

The rain is raining all around,
It falls on field and tree
It rains on the umbrellas here,
And on the ships at sea.
