Apropos of absolutely nothing

While we had a relatively mild winter (meaning we only got 25-30 inches of snow instead of 60-70, and only saw a few days of subzero temperatures instead of weeks on end) in Michigan this year, we've had a rather shitty spring--other than Easter weekend, its been rainy with temps in the upper 30s to upper 40s, constantly cloudy and just overall dreary.

Until today.

And so as I was driving home up Interstate 75, when I looked over into another lane and saw a young woman's hand sticking through the sun roof of her compact car, and watched periodically as we drove a mile, and another, and another, and she never pulled her hand back into her car, I just knew.

Spring has finally arrived in Michigan.

In the immortal word of Leonard Cohen (though I believe he may have borrowed it from God), "Hallelujah!"
