Happy and Good Friday

I live in a home that was built in 1936. Bungalow style. Entry is direct into the living room leading to a short hallway with the door to the bathroom and bedroom on that hallway. Slight turn to the left the entry to second bedroom. Hall leads to the back door with entry on left to the kitchen. Pass thru the swinging door in the kitchen to the dining room, left thru the French doors and you are back in the living room. Doors are all decorated with the original glass knobs. {side note: be sure you understand the mechanics of these knobs before disassembly. There is a slight risk of locking yourself in your room with no logical means of escape – let your mind wander on that thought.}. All of the windows are on the rope and pulley system.. The ropes are long gone and the windows have been either nailed or painted shut. With one lone exception. One window in my bedroom can be opened and propped to stay open. With that window open along with the entry doors opened to the screen fresh air flows through this little house.
What this is all leading to is the second day of Spring.
I left for work at 6:30 this morning bundled in jeans, light sweater, boots. Now 10 hours later, shorts, t-shirt and bare feet. I cleaned the patio off and just enjoyed the spring breeze, 75 degree temperature, and breathed in the aroma of mowed grass and cut wild onions. To add musical accompaniment, the ice cream truck passed by playing the theme song from The Sting.
This is the second day of Spring.
