This is a beautiful sight after a long, cold winter. The window in our bedroom faces south, and is only about a footand a half wide and three feet tall. Old houses. Nevertheless, it's nice to have light and blue sky early in the morning.

We all went out last night to icecream in Mt Pleasant, the large scruffy family out on the town. It makes me crazy when my kids all order bubblegum icecream. So many wonderful flavours, and they get pink bubblegum. Good grief.
