Finally, after what seemed like endless days of rain, the sun came out today. It was still a bit nippy, but inviting enough for Mother and I to stroll around the lake at a local college.
We weren't alone in our gladness to be outdoors under a cloudless deep blue sky. Two young mothers chatted happily as they walked briskly, pushing baby strollers. Three laughing boys, about ten years old, splashed and waded in a rivulet of runoff water from the lake. A toddler girl chased the ducks. Someone was taking pictures of a young couple posed near the pink-blossomed limbs of a tree.
Fallen blossoms from the trees lay scattered like light snow on the walking path. Turtles sunned on a log in the lake.
Everything was right in this tiny corner of the world.
