We haven't had the 90s yet, thank goodness, but we have had the spell of nice weather, and now back to the near freezing. But no snow in the forecast here, which is good because we took the snow tires off the car last week.

I got my peas in a few weeks back and they're coming up very happily in this cold wet weather, and we planted some new grass this weekend, so if we get the promised rain that will do quite well.

Spring is definitely on its way. Yet again. Whatever Man may or may not do to improve or destroy the climate, Spring will keep right on coming.

Warm winter here. Way warm. Quite a bit of rain mixed in.

Now it's mowing season and we have dog bombs all over the yard.

Hey, Croc,

90 degrees! Wow. I'm not sure we've reached that yet. We have had some serious thunderstorms and tornados and everything is growing wildly right now from all the rain. It's just gorgeous.

I make excuses to drive and go everywhere with the top down on my Sebring.
My version of the canoe.
All that exercise turning the steering wheel and hitting the brake.
I am in great urban canoe shape.

Our mourning doves are back and we have an egret that visits our backyard, tons of squirrels and rabbits and our family skunk. Myers seems to be slowing down in his hunting skills, thank God, not a carcass yet this spring.

We also have these weird little worms that came in with the rain, so I have to call the exterminator today. I can handle moths and pillbugs, but not weird worms.
