No Foolin' Around

A thunderstorm rolled through early this morning, leaving a beautiful blue sky and warm air in its wake.The temperature is supposed to hit the mid 80s today, making me wonder if this spring has been a hyperbolic narrative leading up to some sort of elaborate April Fool's joke. The last few weeks have felt like Bob Ross effortlessly painting March, April and May simultaneously onto an amazingly bright canvas.

I don't know if this means we'll have an early and extended summer, but it's clear that spring isn't foolin' around.
