Sunshine finally!

Dear Diary,

Finally, I wake up to sunshine!  Rudy and friends are busy catching up on their seed consumption.  I caught Rudy just as he dropped the shell of his seed.  This time last year I was shoveling up the significant shell cast offs left over from the winter but that yearly task will have to wait until later.  The weatherman is promising warmer temperatures that might reach 70F by Saturday!  Rudy and I hope he's right.  That will melt things nicely and we both want to see the end of this white stuff, as pretty as it is.
