Spring Is Here!

Spring has sprung!

Finally, winter is over.

Well, almost over.

I live in New Hampshire where there is still some snow on the ground, but it is slowly melting as the weather is getting warmer.

No more 10 degree days or -5 (yes, that is minus 5) degree nights.

It is forty degrees right now, but it has been over sixty a few times with one day being seventy-one.

It will only get better.

Now that I said that, watch us get a snowstorm.

In closing, I want to say that when I was growing up, spring always arrived on March 21.

In fact, all the seasons started on the 21st.

Summer arrived on June 21 and fall on September 21.

I won't even talk about winter.

Enough of that.

Good riddance to it.

Spring is here.

YES!!!!!!!!

I'm in Tennessee and we are sick of a winter with NO SNOW. All we have seen this year is a dusting. It really disappoints the kids.
