We have a beautiful day in the Valley with expected highs in the upper 70s, light breezes, and sunshine. The mountains have a blanket of green as the leaves have almost fully filled out on the tree-filled slopes.
I was out early working in the yard ... in for a glass of iced tea before heading back out. With this beautiful weather, it's a great opportunity to enjoy the many events going on in the SWAC area today:

It's spring in the Valley....
Update: High clouds have moved into the Valley causing overcast skies and, at 2 pm, the temp is only 71 degrees so that high that was predicted will not be reached today. It's still nice out there although a bit breezier than this morning.
