Warm Spring Sunset

April 8, 2010 by still a dreamer

It’s far too warm for early April. And I am the last one to be excited about 83 degrees this early in the year. I look forward to it getting cooler, and tomorrow’s being back to a more seasonal 60. But the one thing this warm spell has given us is a spectacular sunset. Or two. This was yesterday evening’s. The sky was just glowing with creamy colors and, framed by the trees just beginning to bud, was quite lovely.

Many buggy little beings are out and about as well, the ladybugs that appear in just one upstairs window frame; the stinkbugs that march along the floor, coming from who knows where. I’m less excited to see early wasps looking to make homes around the porches. I’d like it to at least be June before they visit. But with temps expected to drop to near freezing Friday night, there’s no telling what will happen to them.

I know I’m not alone in hoping we really do have a spring, and not just the occasional slide we’ve seen from winter to summer. While I watch to see what will happen, I look forward to more spectacular skies, and …

… the huge annual county library book sale this weekend, where all manner of things go for $2/hard-bound and $1/paperback on Saturday and half that on Sunday. Woo Hoo!
