Where is everybody?

So, Sunday afternoons aren't normally the quiet serene times we wish they were.
Probably because of the lack of technology and outdoor activities everyone is used to, during the rest of the week.
Last week it suddenly got really quiet.
Weird.
Then I noticed half of us were missing.
After checking the usual(and not so usual) places like the backyard, the garage, even the bathrooms, I was stumped.
Had they gone on a walk without telling me?
Nope.
I finally found them.

They weren't playing "assassination", they were soaking up the warmth from the spring sunshine. But on the driveway?!

Sitting on your driveway is a great way to greet the neighbors without having to move much at all.

The best part.  It was even warm enough for Bare Feet! March in Ut Valley is so much nicer than in Cache Valley, although as I type it is snowing again. I think that is just a Utah Spring thing I need to relearn every year. Spring snow.
 I am reminded constantly in this beautiful neighborhood, and valley, and state in general, of the blessing it is to be living here.
 We are blessed with safety, with beautiful seasons, beautiful scenery and many of our family members living close by.
We couldn't ask for more.
