A Rare Mix

This weekend was a truly unusual mix of elements. On Saturday afternoon, we headed downtown with no plans other than to walk from one lake to another. Nearly everyone out and about was wearing green, either coming to watch the St. Patrick's Day parade or grabbing a beer at a pub. But the strange part was all this was taking place with sunny, eighty-degree weather instead of the unusual snow and chilly temps! The trees were still bare but city dwellers were walking, biking and lounging by the lakes in shorts and sundresses. It was an odd juxtaposition, but wonderful to experience!
