Starting Without Checking

Starting this post without checking the weather or stepping outside might not be a good idea. Since the weather is my go to subject when the brain is dead, I'm not sure how that's gonna work. Phone, my precious, what's the weather like on the Front Porch this morning, you rectangular wealth of information you? ... Take heart, Phone. Your lack of decent service does not diminish the fact that you are an amazing piece of technology. We'll try again... here we go! It's ... wait... what? It's 45° out there!? 
45?
OBACE must check this out forthwith!! Ready up the 5 sense meters! Where's Camera!? Camera wake up! Let's go!!
It's rather nice out there. Here's the Sense Meter sum-up-
EARS- Dripping! Everything was dripping. It sounded like it was raining, but it wasn't. Birds were singing EVERYWHERE and not a one to photo. They're loving the warm weather! The only thing competing with their song was the traffic noise. Very loud this morning.
EYES- Everything was wet and the sunrise was just beginning to show up in the sky. Camera wasn't able to catch the rose color happening on the clouds floating by.
NOSE- There was just a faint whiff of wood smoke from a fireplace burning somewhere, along with a touch of exhaust and that great smell after a heavy rain. 
TOUCH- The 5 mph breeze was enuf to bring out the goosebumps after a while, and I could feel a mist hitting my bare arms and face. The mist felt good. Oh, and I feel I must mention the large drop of what I hope was water hitting the top of my head all of a sudden. I shudder to think what else it might have been since I was standing under a tree at the time.
TASTE- I forgot to put sugar in my coffee. *humphf* but, you know what? I'm not hating it! Still trying to figure out why.
May your senses bring to you all the wonders of the Universe they are able, my Fellow Travelers. Love and Happiness to you and don't forget to LIVE LAUGH and LOVE your way through life!!
