YOU NEED TO MOVE TO A WARM PLACE, MATE;GET THAT SUMMER FEELING;
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Reeds driftin on by you know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom in the tree you know how I feel

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
That's what I mean

And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me

Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Untitled seems appropriate.

Minimalist colours do it for me.

Michael, I said the same thing, but I added an overhead camera shot and really extended the NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!? It was a pretty powerful moment. The snow kept falling though.

Alien, thanks for the lyrics. You are correct. I have been thinking the same thing. Several times a day.

Ewen, Untitled had to do, because there is not a word for the level of disappointment one feels when putting on winter clothing to go outside on May 10th. If there was a word, it would be over 15 letters long, and very hard to spell anyway.

The good news is, the sun is shining this morning, the snow is already gone, and it's 28F already! Well, it's not all good news. At least yesterday it was above 30F all day.

Here's an interesting article that might shed some light on the strange weather.

I keep telling you, it will be too cold in Fargo for the Kenyans, and you can still hope to record a win.

Eric said...

We'll see. It looks like the Kenyans may already be switching to the Green Bay Cellcom Marathon on May 18, the next day. However, this year the marathon field appears to include Michael Wardian and Matt Thull, both very capable of low 2:20 performances.

To your point, though, that's why we run the race! I know that if I'm in striking distance at the end, I will give it all I have. Thanks for the encouragement, Thomas. Cheers!

Interesting article. Even more interesting comments. Well, quite humarous actually.

As for this cold weather, I'd blame Canada. It's always cold up there. I think it may be their sinister plan for World domination.

Good luck this weekend Sundog. Your training has been very impressive and motivating for me. I'm looking forward to seeing the results.

Michael said...

How are you feeling about the race, have you got everything lined up and ready to go?

You've done the work and deserve a good one, all the best of luck!
