Yay. We've been back in Canada for about seven weeks but this is the first day I put on shorts in the morning! Even though I manage to avoid wearing long pants during our winters away, today felt great.
The weather forecast shows a stretch of spring high pressure hanging around for a day or two. How auspicious to have it occur on a weekend! More people will be able to enjoy it this way.
Generally, we go grocery shopping on Saturday mornings. However, tomorrow some friends will be visiting from before lunch until late afternoon.
We went to the Lougheed Superstore in Coquitlam, BC. They always have a temporary garden center during spring and summer in a portion of their parking lot. Today, although we didn't want to purchase anything, we had to walk through to see the brightly-coloured flowers and plants.
It'd be hard not to be happy and optimistic when the weather is so cooperative!
