Finally

At last, winter has finally released it grip on our weather, and suddenly there is outdoor activity everywhere.  As I drove out of town a few days ago I met numerous farmers pulling anhydrous tanks and other equipment down the highway.  It's certainly time for caution on the roads.   My neighbor was the first one to start his lawn mower and the grass is coming, but not really ready for mowing.  I watched him for a minute and thought "really??"  The need to pick up sticks from the lawn seems an endless task but necessary.  And, I've noticed several folks out puttering around the yard or in the garden.  I think everyone is just so happy to be outdoors again.  I've spent sometime in the garden myself and ... to my dislike, I realized I'm not alone.  The darn  garden snakes are also enjoying the sun.
