SPRING!

Spring has arrived.

On Saturday it finally warmed up here, and the trees burst into bloom. Seriously. On Friday, the cherry tree had bare branches. By Sunday morning the view out our bedroom window was this:



While working in the yard this weekend, the neighbor's cat found a snake, which we rescued. Usually, we find brown snakes. This snake is a garter snake.


It actually bit Casey, so Casey prudently put on gloves when it was time to release the snake (back into the ivy where the cat probably found it again...)


Later in the weekend, the kids had their last pre-season baseball practice before the opening game on Monday (which they won).


And on Saturday, we celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary. I cadged a last-minute reservation, and we had dinner at a new-ish restaurant in Cambridge.
