First Spring Day

Although yesterday wasn't the first day of spring it was the first day that actually felt like spring. The first weekend day where the sun was out and the temperature was oscillating in the upper 60s.

Nicole and I mounted our bikes, mine recently purchased hers recently tuned up, and rode down the bike path. It was a wonderful relaxing lazy day.

We sat by the lake for a while and just enjoyed not having anything to do.

On a whim we headed over to the Lincoln Park Zoo. It was very crowded mostly with pregnant women and formerly pregnant women and their babies. The African painted dogs were a highlight. 

The main attraction of course was the lion. The King. Lording over the park from his sunning rock. He yawned a couple of times showing his large toothy maw. He may have been tired or he may have been showing off for his adoring crowd. Majestic.

Nicole had never been to the zoo or ridden down the bike path. It was a lovely day of firsts.
