Signs of Spring

Well, after a little hiatus, we're back! While Charlotte gets treated to a week in Denmark visiting family and seeing familiar sights, I apparently get treated to a week of summer-like weather on the Seacoast (with temperatures into the 80s for the past two days)!

I'm not the only one who's noticing...it's amazing to see all the plants that have been patiently waiting through the somewhat cold (but not really) winter suddenly burst forth over the span of a couple days!

Even the magnolia tree outside our window is getting ready to put on quite a show...and it's not even April yet!

Perhaps best of all, though, the later sunsets are making it possible to enjoy some after-work barbecues!

All in all, we're doing well here on the island. We're sorry for our leave of absence from the blog world, and we hope that all is well wherever this update finds you!
