Monday

We woke to a beautiful pastel sky this morning. It feels a little disingenuous though, as we supposed to have rain (and even some snow!) later this afternoon.

Spring in the Midwest can be a little crazy. Snow arrived right on schedule this afternoon. And we’re supposed to hit eighty degrees this weekend.

By the way, I’ve been watching that caulking gun on the ledge in the photo for at least a few months now. They did some work on the gutters on the building next to my office awhile back, and one of the workers left it behind. So there it sits, four or five stories off the ground and out of view from nearly everyone. Something tells me it’s going to sit there for quite awhile. I can’t imagine they repair gutters or the roof on that building very often, and it looks like it’s shielded from the wind pretty well (I think it would take quite a gust to knock it down anyways). Months at least, maybe years. We’ll see.
