First Day of Spring Here in the Sub (division)

Wow, 50 degrees today. And, it is the official first day of Spring. Thanks a lot you dadburn ol' Groundhog. Even with your forecast, Spring FINALLY arrived, six weeks later, or about the time Bill Murray said it would. //// I was able to get the '85 Firebird started after it sat in the garage from Nov. 9th to today. Had to do a lot of battery charging, though. Started right up in a cloud of smoke until it warmed up. I had to chop away ice and snow that is still along the driveway to back it out. I still have almost two feet along the west side of it. //// Drove around the subdivision and saw that quite a few folks still had their Christmas decorations up. Some, including my neighbor across the street were taking them down. The weather has just been too bad to do anything since December. //// Also saw the little dog we call "Ears" because of his huge ears on such a little doggie body was out, the first time we had seen him since December. //// I even saw some jonquils sprouting up by the furnace vent (always the first up). Until a couple days ago, they were under snow. //// Love the smell of jonquils and hyacinths in the spring, Smells Like Dadburn Winter's Over. --RoadDog
