A Fantastic February

February is just one of those months. A short number of days, unpredictable weather, hot cocoa by the fireplace, the scent of baseball season around the corner, snowboard season is in full effect. These were all very true statements for myself in the East Bay house this past month. Another birthday came and went, and now I am no longer part of the young 20 year olds crowd. Ski trips were few and far between, though I am still hopeful I can squeeze a few more trips under my belt come spring time. A handful of days with beautiful weather managed to remind us spring time weather is soon upon us. However, torrential downpoors and three foot snowstorms in the Sierras reassured the reality we are still in the winter months.

Purim was a nice start to the month of March, and what a month to look forward to. Moishe House softball is in full effect with two squads this spring! The madness of college basketball, the beauty of daylight savings, long spring afternoons, all to be rounded out with the communal gathering of Passover come the first week of April. Although I am a snow bunny at heart, the lull of winter months is in our past, and the oportunistic future of spring flowers and wearing shorts and flip flops oh so soon is a great thing to look forward to.
