Spring Equinox

This year the Spring Equinox is the earliest in over a century, since 1896 at 05:14 GMT, which means that on the West Coast of British Columbia it will arrive on March 19th but someone should tell Mother Nature



as this morning when I left for work, it was below freezing and my windows were all iced up



While other parts of our Country are basking in a relatively warm heat wave we can only dream of T-shirts & shorts and hope that Spring is close behind.

In anticipation of warmer temperatures, it was only last week that I decided to dust off my sandal collection in preparation for the change in seasons. I know, I know I have too many shoes . I can't help myself but someone has to keep all those shoe outlets in business. I am a sucker for minimalistic shoes, especially the ones with the toe loops. I sweat a lot in closed shoes and prefer "free range" mode.



I am going to try hard to trim my sandal budget this year and use something more economical and cost effective . . .

I only recently realized that I already possessed the ultimate pair



of waterproof footwear, which have served me well for many years
