After all my moaning and groaning...Spring has finally arrived.
It is 77 degrees this afternoon. Bright blue sky and a nice breeze. I'm seeing little buds on the trees and the critters are coming out. The deer are back in my meadow in the morning. The ice went off the pond yesterday. Life could not be better!

1. It'll be back in the 30s next week and a blizzard's coming.
I've lived there.
I know.

3. It was like someone hit a switch
Bats, woodcock, butterflies, robins, gobbling turkeys, warblers, wood thrushes, spring peepers, skunk cabbage shoots, bees, birch and poplar catkins - but the lakes were still frozen solid here in ME....
