This picture is from my run today. Today was the perfect running weather-not too hot, not too cold, and no snow (in February)! I had a great run, and I could have run all day in the nice weather -except I had homework to do. I am loving the March/April weather in February, and absolutely dreading the return of winter.

The picture below is from this time last year. A year ago, we had a snow storm that dumped over 20 inches of snow on our school. Classes were cancelled for the first time in over ten years. The snow was pretty until I had to walk to class in it, then it was just cold and messy. On my run today, I realized just how thankful I am for a very mild winter this year. Forty degrees in February and not a flake of snow to be seen in the snowbelt- I call that perfect February weather.
