This spring thing is not that far away

Here we are on day 11 of the Month of Love.  I taught my once
a week college class tonight, and gave them all Valentine's postcards
featuring one of my Valentine's designs.  The class -- about writing and
public speaking -- was electric tonight.  There is something in the
air, maybe spring, maybe just straight up joyful intelligence.  Maybe the fact
that Valentine's Day is this Thursday.  Whatever it is -- class was so much fun!

The painting tonight is of the view on a street in my neighbourhood
when the crabapple trees come into bloom.  It feels like absolute
paradise -- a little gift from me as Toronto heads into another snow
storm.  I have been joking that it will be Snowmageddon tonight, but what
it could be is a lot of snow.  This painting is available, and if you'd
like it for your sweetheart for Valentine's Day, I will deliver it in
person in the Toronto (Canada) area.

Have a loving where you live day.
