a wonderful week

There is a spark of excitement in the air.
Everywhere you go, people spontaneously burst into conversation.

"A lovely day, isn't it?"

"AND, the weekend is going to be even better!"

At one point the temperature high was to be 12 - 12 celcius! - double digits! (which is 53.6 for you non metric types, of which many Canadians are still) That seems to have been downgraded a bit but, still... great excitement. A desire to be outside, walking.

It isn't like we have had a horrendous winter (as have some of you, poor things). Very little snow and not much of the bitter cold of winters past. But, let the sun shine and the sky turn a brilliant shade of blue and suddenly the energy changes. Giddy, and happy.

Or not. A loud discussion with this pair of Canada Geese went on, and on, with no clear winner.

Though these guys were definitely frisky, not all were in a good mood.

This poor swan was in a right foul mood

chasing everyone and nipping at any poor soul who got in her way.

But, we all got our exercise, one way or another!

Have a great weekend, everybody.
