Hello Summer!

I think this weekend is going to be the real introduction to summer- not Memorial Day.  Now I know it will probably get cold and rainy again at some point in the next few weeks, but right now on weather.com we have a 5-7 day stretch of 80 degree days.  That is good enough for me.  We are in business.

Once a year, on the first genuinely beautiful day of the year, when I walk outside and the sunshine and the fresh air hit me in the face I throw my arms up in the air and say "Hello Summer".  Last weekend was beautiful, but I forgot to say it.  So tomorrow afternoon, if you see me leaving the office around 4:45 (if all goes as planned) you will witness me saying hello to summer.

My goal this weekend is to spend as much time outside as possible.  After being pent up all week in the office, where the weather is always a constant 70 degrees and sterile, some sun and fresh air is just what I need.  Some golf, some dining al fresco, some time walking around the city...sign me up.  I fully expect summer to be in full gear this weekend- sandals, shorts, and sunglasses.  Even if it is back to a suit and tie on Monday, I know that this weekend I am free.  Enjoy everyone!
