unedited for 100 days. Day 34

We are days away from feeling 70 degree weather on our face; through our car windows, strolling on lunch break or maybe out at a park with the dogs and kids. Seattle is about to burst at the seams with pasty white legs and desperate beach loungers this coming Monday and Tuesday. We are shameless when it comes to our first glimpse of warmer weather. I live in Kirkland which is a miniature and much colder version of a soCal beach town. Everyone on the eastside comes to Kirkland on sunny days and the people watching is good enough to satisfy my need. Boaters, awkward teenagers, babies, dogs and squads of all kinds. I've mentioned my beach cruiser before, and this forecast has me curious if I can get our trailer hooked up to it in time for a cruise with the baby girl next week. Like I said, we get really excited about those first warm days and we aren't shy about it. The lemonade shop will be packed, gelato will sell out and Lake Washington Boulevard will look like I-5 just because people want to cruise the strip with their choice of summer jams on. It's all fun and geeky, and it's a reminder to not sweat the small stuff. It's a reminder to take time to enjoy life because we all know in this corner of the world, our sunny days are numbered.
