Glorious!

There is nothing subtle about the season changes in Southern Ontario.  The weather can go from snowy and bleak to full sunshine and short weather almost overnight.  Spring/Summer has finally arrived.  Our spring was sort of anemic.  It varied from snowy and cold to rainy and bleak.  Then, sometime in the last few days the sun mustered all it's courage and has finally decided to stay.

It is a glorious time of year.  It is one of my favourite times of the year.  Before it is muggy and too hot to move.  Before they start to give humidex warnings in the 40's (Just to be clear for any non metric users 40 to 45 Celcius is about 104 to 114 F) (I just learned that humidex is primarily a Canadian phenomenon.  They use it the same way you use windchill, it's how hot the temperature feels because of the humidity). 

today is the day to play hookey and eat outside.  We decided to buy a new bbq last night and I foresee steaks and burgers in our future nearly nightly for the next few weeks as we test it out.

There is nothing better than good weather to lift your spirits and make up for a crappy day.
