A Taste Of Spring!

 A quick post about the wonderful weather we have been having.   In fact,  Today it nearly rose to 50 degrees!  You could walk outside comfortably with a T-shirt, if it were not for that strong breeze.  

By the way,   Did anyone know that it was President's Day last Monday?   I knew....  Yet I forgot and went to mail something at the post office.   Of course, the post office was closed!   (The one day I actually have to use it...)   So, being in downtown Kenosha that early in the morning, I decided to go for a walk near the Lake.  

This was the last of the Icebergs on Lake Michigan.  They slowly were floating out to sea as the west wind blew the waves out.   The entire lake looked so calm and peaceful...   And the Sun was nice and warm.  Too bad I could not stay longer. 

I am beginning to hope that my foot has healed enough to begin running again.   I certainly could use the exercise!  I used to run before heading to work back in the Summer...  I hope I can gain that habit again as the air warms up. 

Having missed Monday's mailing,  I still had the package and went back on Tuesday.   The temps held and I went for another walk along the pier.   This time there was a little more fog and moisture in the air.   But I walked around the Columbus Park again.   And with a few extra minutes to waste before work, I decided to visit the Kenosha Museum. 

I guess this month is "Shark Week" at the Museum.  ( Or better..."Shark Month!")   I did a quick lap to look at the pics of the sharks and read all the stuff I already know.  I though the display was pretty good!   Especially compared to the "Historic Women" display they had last time. ( Mostly political females you never heard about...) 

Anyway.  I hear the warm spell is not meant to last.   But we have already had our first Spring Rain of 2026.  It rained last night  just before We got out of Haribo.  Luckily, it was not hard enough to get us soaked, but I did have to engage the windshield wipers all the way home.

Tomorrow is our Monthly Haribo Meeting where they tell us all about how the Company is doing.   They gave us Tacos yesterday as a "Moral Booster" for the month.  (Good Tacos!)  And all of the little things to help bring the culture together.   I like it!   And everyday is a fan day at Haribo.  Honestly,  I get to drive a fork Truck around and work with a great team of people!   Who wouldn't want that? 

So that is all.   Time to head to bed and plan for tomorrow.   I have even been planning on some possible Sidewalk Chalk sessions this month.   As long as it does not rain.   

In the mean time,  I'm going to try to make every second count.
