5 signs of Spring!


  • Birds singing!
  • Ads on the radio have changed their tune.  Apparently it's 'Time to get a lawnmower!'  'Best time to buy a fireplace - end of season sale!'  And all the seed companies vying for best-seed-for-some-reason-or-other award.  (It's pretty funny actually because they spend almost as much time convincing us that despite what it looks/feels like spring really is nearly here, as they do promoting the product!)
  • Sunshine
  • Farmers are remembering they have fields
  • Only a month and a half left till school is out!  (Let me tell you, the kids are itching already!)


I'm still waiting to see the first green leaf or new blade of grass... and waiting for a sighting of the one other sure sign of spring - the first tractor in the field!




Three weeks ago out our front window - it was a HUGE icicle!

And today (our front yard)... the drippy, slushy, wet and yucky of the very beginning of spring!


Now if the temperature would just warm up...
