Hey, I'm Not Going to Complain

A record low for monthly precipitation, a near record high for temperature on a single day, not a bad way to say goodbye to February and welcome March. The normally dreary month of February was surprisingly pleasant and dry here in Columbia, and regardless of if that will have an impact on the areas agriculture or not, I really do not care. It was delightful out there, it just seems like there is more energy in the air when it is as nice outside as it has been. Today, March 1st, is the nicest day of the year (so far). I was able to wear shorts and a T-shirt to class today, and even though I overslept this morning (that's another story all together), the day was truly enjoyable. Being able to walk around campus in this kind of weather has been great. I know that rain storms will eventually sweep through Columbia, and that the weather will probably cool down to normal temperatures for the month of March. But I am soaking this weather up while it lasts. February was a great month as far as weather goes, and I'm hoping that March follows suit.
