Ah, sweet relief!

Oh, rapture unexampled!  73 degrees and sunny in Olympia!!  How lovely!  The weather people are calling the "one day wonder" and warning the populace not to get comfortable.  I am sitting outside with a beer and headphones (it's landscaping day at Apple Park so very noisy... countering the edgers and mowers with some mambo, some reggae, a little Henry Mancini  and some soca for a happy afternoon!) and my laptop and loving it. 
All the negativity about the weather and Olympia must end.  It is well past time to put a positive effort into moving to warmer climes.  I'm going to stop cursing the cold and light a fire, damnit!  Will encourage Paul to do the same.
I'm thinking of protesting the weather by dressing inappropraitely for conditions from now on (shorts and sandals no matter what's happening?) but as yet it's only a beer induced concept brought on by seasonal temps.  I may sing another tune when it's raining and 60 (tomorrow).
Since I did not go anywhere interesting or take photos of anything interesting today, I'm posting an old photo from a sunny day about two years ago (no summer last year) when I just had enough of the office and hopped a ferry to Bremerton for lunch.

    1. Well, I think I was a little giddy from the sun (and beer... and tunes) because when the sun went away (not long after making my ambitious claim) and I put on a sweatshirt. That worked well for about an hour or two but I wimped out and put on pants. About a half an hour later I added socks. By the time we sat down to a movie I had to have a blanket. Paul (and Kelly Brown) must be made of sterner stuff!!
