Making the most

It's been a weird spring so far. Most days have been cold. Some days have been hot.

Then there are days like today, where the clouds threaten the sky for a moment, and it seems like the sun is fighting back.

We try not to be lame and stay indoors on days such as this, even if they aren't perfect for the pool (not hot and sunny enough) or a real hike (not consistently cool enough). This means a walk around the pond.

Of note today, a group of evil Canadian geese attacked swimmers at the pond! I am telling you, those animales are vicious!! We were just walking by, enjoying the families all around us and they good time they were having, and then - bam! - there are these bomb shelter sirens going off all around the pond area, and the lifeguards are assembling in a group. Then we see it - a line of geese descending within the roped off area of the pond that is intended for people-swim only. They seriously looked like an armada as kids and grandparents and everyone in between ran out of the water away from them. And the lifeguards, ha ha, just lined up in the water and faced them. I don't know what their tactic was to be (a not-so-friendly game of red rover or battleship, perhaps?), but I hope it worked. We did our loop around the pond and did not stay to find out.

What do you do to make the most of weird weather days during your weekend? I feel like being outside is key, but in the midst of crazy clouds and rabid geese, one has to be crafty...
