About Spring....and stuff.

So, every year when spring comes around its like dejavu. Like, "Um, this feels familar, like a dream I had long ago. Is this really happening? Hmmm." I remember being a kid, rolling down the car windows for the first time of the year and waving my arm out in the wind, smelling the thawing dirt, hearing the robins cheerily-ing in the evening. It all comes back alive in the Spring doesn't it? Everything, including us. Laura Ingalls Wilder wasn't kidding when she wrote "The Long Cold Winter". Minnesota, I do love you, but jeez! Looking forward to long peaceful evening walks, floating down lazy rivers, and green grass under bare feet, digging in the earth and planting seeds. I certainly wouldn't mind being a snow bird, flying south-ish for the winter. (Yes. Please God, let it be so!) E-hem. Did you hear something? Anyways, what was I saying? Oh yes, Spring is here! Hooray!
