The Smell of Rain

For the first time in a what seems a long time, we had that lovely smell that only comes when the weather is warm enough to waft the combined smell of earth, plant matter and rain. Temps were only in the upper 30's F, but it was evidently enough to give a spring like feel to the day.

Ok, granted - there is still snow, the ground is still frozen and all of this will likely turn to snow as the system works its way through. But, you have to give me that moment where I almost felt like I was playing hooky from weeding the gardens....
