60 degree day finally

Today it was 60 degrees. It has been a cold winter and 60 degrees feels very welcome at the moment. The problem with that is if it turns cold again it actually feels worse than it should. I don't want to think about that at the moment. What sucks today about being 60 degrees is I had to be inside all day. I had classes all day and a lab after so I did not get home until after five. I did get to eat lunch in my car though but that made me think even worse about leaving and enjoying the day. I had a test that I believe I bombed so leaving was a really god thought. I stayed because I have lab at the end of the day. I need the lab hours for my program so I did the right thing by staying. There was so much I could have done on a nice day like today. I was daydreaming of getting my kids out of school and going to Ha Ha Tonka State Park. That place has a lot of trails to hike. You could hike all day and never finish all of them. One trail even goes to the lake. There is a castle that was rebuilt, well the stonework on the outside anyway. We take our kids there often in the summer when it is not to terribly hot. There is even a big spring that flows out from underneath a bluff. A person used to be able to jump off the bluff into the spring but the Department of Natural Resources put a stop to that. It was fun while it lasted though. I see their point of stopping it. Someone could get hurt by doing it. One of the trails is called Devil's Kitchen. You hike up a hill for a while then you have a decent hike down a slope to what they call Devil's Kitchen. It is a cool place. It is a bluff with a shelf on it that you can walk totally across. The bluff slopes over the shelf so if it is raining you will not get wet. The bluff also curves. It curves so much it make two thirds of a circle. When I am there I just can't help but think that the Indians had to have used this for shelter. The ground at the base of the bluff during the winter puts out fog or steam so I guess that is how it got it's name. I just think that it was a good daydream.
