spring

For the past few days, the weather has warmed up considerably. Its actually gotten into the low 70s. I've also started to notice that sunset is much later now (close to 6PM). Somehow I don't remember these signs of Spring coming so early in the past, but seeing as how the Earth hasn't changed orbit, I guess my memory is just failing me.
I've started watching Michael Palin's Sahara travel series. I'm really enjoying this one. I find it amazing how varied that part of Africa is, beyond just the stereotypical desert.
