Disclaimer, first: Portland's had a fairly mild winter. I've still been looking forward to it ending and our weather getting warmer.

It did today. For the first time in a while, I was outside in just short shirt-sleeves, though with a sweatshirt waiting. (I tied the sweatshirt around my waist.) I ran quick errands at a bank and a post office, and waited until after sunset to actually wear the sweatshirt. (In between the errands and heading home, I hung out at the Holgate library.) It's partly cloudy, so it could get cold tonight, but I don't have to be outside in it right now.

More warmth to come...
