The first day of spring has arrived on the calendar; though, outside I believe it arrived a week ago, but perhaps I was wrong regarding the date. This morning I noticed a patch of ground in my front yard, no robins or green buds yet. When is spring official? Here I think it's when the air smells of meltdown and the winds actually have a southern warmth to them, like last week. The built-up ice is gone from all paved grounds. The sandy shore of our beloved little beach should be visible by the end of April, perhaps by then we'll be able to hear the water splashing again, teasing us. Maybe I'll work on getting the children walking to school instead of being bussed?
Sounds good! I'm off to eat some of last night's roast beef sliced onto some bread. This idea will need some energy to implement.
Enjoy Everyone
