Spring is here!



Time to pack away the puffy-down winter coat and fur-lined boots.

While it is the ugliest time of the year with brown grass and black snow, it evokes a sense of reawakening after a long spell of winter dormancy.

Soon green buds will emerge on tree branches and hosta bulbs will peek out from the brown ground.

Birds sing and fly all over the back yard! Time to put food in the bird house.

Melt, drip, melt, drip, melt, drip. Flood!

Rake up soggy leaves and clean up missed dog doodie.

No more fleece sweaters or slippers. Layers for quick removal.

Plan flowers and summer vacations.

We missed you, Spring!
