Warming Trend

Spring is definitely upon us - we've hit 90 degrees here in sunny AZ already.

We're still seeing ducks stop by for a dip in our swimming pool on a regular basis. Usually, it's a single male duck, sometimes two, and on occasion, a female duck also joins in the fun.

Three ducks swimming and quacking all at once really, really aggravate our cats. Who, in turn, aggravate the ducks. We're quite the happy zoo :-)

Not much else is going on here - all is quiet on the adoption front, so we planned a few trips to escape the early heat. I'm meeting D. in San Diego this weekend for a little R&R. I have been truly missing the ocean! Later this month, we're headed to a conference in Washington, D.C. We haven't been back to the D.C. area since moving from there to Arizona almost 13 (!) years ago. It will be interesting to see if we still miss it in reality like we do in our memories.

Next month we're off to New Mexico for a co-worker's wedding, and then in June we'll be going to Tampa for a weaving convention, which I'm super excited about (and which D. is being a trooper about). Lots to keep us busy - and keep our minds off of the wait!
