The first weekend of Spring Break brought amazing weather. We all hoped it was going to stick around, but that wasn't to be -- too early to hope for that. And apparently we need the rain, so we should be thankful for it (!?).
Took a hike up Bald Hill, and the view was incredible. Looking over the burg,
and looking west.
Later in the week, we took a day off as a family to go do something (only that didn't really materialize, for a few reasons, mainly the weather). Bucketfuls came down. Then we did get our proverbial promise not to flood the earth, fortunately.
Right before it was time to go back to school (when there was a slight break in the weather and it just rained instead of poured), we took the opportunity to go to the park for a walk/bike ride. It felt great to do that!
Miri spies something in the river....
... which turned out to be a guy in a kayak, rowing upstream. Later he stopped on the gravel bar and pulled out a harmonica and waved some more. Hmmm.
Gotta get some time on the "pway swuctures", since they lament to us all the time that we don't have anything like this at our house anymore.
They did have a good time, and that was the point. Mission accomplished.
