Enjoying the Weather!

It's been a great weekend in Western PA. After enjoying a great couple of days with my niece over by Pittsburgh, we drove back over to Somerset to visit some old friends up near Central City. It was great to see them. It was also great to see their daughters, whom I remember as teenagers, all grown up and married. We enjoyed partaking of some tasty red meat, some excellent broccoli-cheese soup, and generally feasted through the evening.
Sunday morning we enjoyed an enthusiastic welcome from our friends at BCK Ministries, then had the opportunity to get to reconnect with some more old friends. We had some great fun playing the amusingly updated versions of Pong and Tank on their Wii.
Sunday afternoon I got to do something that I haven't done in a really long time. I sat out on the back porch in the warm sunshine and jammed on the guitar. I don't remember when the last time was that it I was warm enough that it was nicer to be sitting outside than inside.
Today I started the round of emails that will finalize our travel plans for the Big Drive in April. As I type this, I'm sipping a great cup of hazelnut coffee at Panera Bread Co. and looking out across the valley containing Johnstown. The local weather forecasters are trying to figure out how today could be so warm and sunny, after having predicted doom all week (it was supposed to snow today). I'm not complaining.
