bouncing temperatures

The temperature took a big bounce today, from the single digits of early this week to the current (afternoon) warmth of 59 degrees. Most of the snow has disappeared; where it remains a mist was rising.

Robins were happily prancing about... it's too bad they are year-round residents as opposed to a sign of spring.

I was very lucky to manage a mid-day dry walk. There was water in the air, a mist of sorts. Now? Rain is falling. I just heard a bit of thunder too.
