Spring Fever

Us Grand Islanders are used to those long cold winters, and have learned to accept the fact that Grand Island sucks when it comes to winter. I have had some good times sledding and building snowmen.....back when i was 8. Face it, Nebraska just isn't a happenin place. I must say i envy those people from Colorado or Wyoming who can't wait to pull out their ski boots and snowboards whenever winter comes around. But- this year we have finally gotten a weather break. It looks like spring is just around the corner. The last few days here in GI have been beautiful. It was nice to get out and jog outside for once..the treadmill was getting old. I love the sun, and the sound of people mowing their grass. It's refreshing to get some of this nice weather after such a long time of cold air and wind. But knowing nebraska's weather, tomorrow we could all be snowed in. So enjoy the weather while you can!!
