We Actually Had A Spring!

Here in the deserts of Phoenix we never really get much of a Spring or Fall. It seems like the weather goes from super hot to cold and back to hot again all without any mild weather in between. My husband and I usually kid each other about having the windows open whenever possible to get some fresh air because usually this can only happen for about two weeks maximum. Well this year we've actually had a Spring and that's really unusual. For about the last month the weather has been incredibly tolerable and we haven't hit 100 yet, although we've had several days in the 90's which I consider to be acceptable. So many days in the 80's and a nice breeze, it almost makes us forget and think we live in a normal place!
Since I slept with the windows open, the coyotes kept waking me up last night howling, yelping and carrying on. There is a desert wash behind the homes across the street and this wash comes directly down from the mountain and is a frequent pathway used by the coyotes. There must have been a huge pack of them last night because they were so loud! With all their yelping and howling they really sounded as if they were having a good time. In the back of my mind I was secretly hoping they were enjoying a snack of Beagle as the dog across the street bark incessently. I know that sounds mean and I really don't wish the dog any harm but sometimes the thought enters your mind and, what can you do?
