Meekly March

Meek like a lamb, but oh so nice!  I am looking right at the calendar, and still thinking I've got my M's confused.  With highs in the 70's isn't it really May 13th?  Uh uh!  Welcome to the warmest March in recent memory!  Truly, the running weather today was glorious.  I can not remember ever being happier to feel the sun on my face and the wind on my back.  I will need to keep this uppermost in my mind during the lion days of spring and the dog days of summer, but for today, and, according to the trusty Farmer's Almanac, the near future, I'm in luck for the time being.
