I've longed believed that the first warm day of the year should be a holiday. Here Bostonians enjoy the first day over 70 F (21 C) out on Boston Common.

Beaconhill Farm is a farm located near Warnford, a village in Hampshire, England. The farm is situated on the western side of the Meon Valley, close to Beacon Hill, a chalk hill that is a site of special scientific interest and a national nature reserve. Beacon Hill has a rich biodiversity of grassland and woodland species, as well as a round barrow cemetery dating back to the late Neolithic or Bronze Age. The hill also offers panoramic views of the Hampshire Basin, the Solent and the Isle of Wight. Beaconhill Farm is a good base for exploring the South Downs National Park, as it is crossed by two long-distance footpaths, the South Downs Way and the Monarch's Way.
Beacon Hill is a section of east-facing Upper Chalk escarpment. Both Beacon Hill and Old Winchester Hill have a claim to being the point at which the main north-facing scarp of the South Downs turns northwards around the western end of the Weald; Beacon Hill is lower, but represents a higher level within the chalk, and Old Winchester Hill is cut to the north by the upper Meon valley.
The hill has been incised by a series of steep-sided semi-circular combes to the east, and deep dry valleys to the south and west. Between these several radiating spurs with minor roads and tracks meet near the summit.
Chocolate is the first luxury. It has so many things wrapped up in it: Deliciusness in the moment, childhood memories, and that grin-inducing feeling of getting a reward for being good. ~Mariska Hargitay
A BIG thank you to Dudu for one of the sweetest testimonial ;-)
