Last Day of Winter 2022

Today is the last day of winter, and I am looking forward to spring.

Of course, here in California it already is feeling like spring. Especially the allergies from all the pollen.

California winter, rain clouds, gazeboIt was nice this week to have a little bit of rain which has helped reduce the allergens in the air.

I worked from home most of the week, but did go to the office for a St. Patrick’s celebration. Oops, I mean to prep for my course next week.

I do like this time of year as the nearby park is nice and green from the rains.

Tomorrow is the first day of spring. I hope it gets off to a good start.
