As we are having this delightful Spring, I hear comments along the Mail Route, a old timers saying, "I am sure we will be punished for this…I wonder when we will pay for these nice days." My response is, "It isn't punishment, but its our reward for making it through the winter!"
It is funny how often we can't accept the good times, believing there will be a price to pay…but perhaps not. Maybe we all can enjoy this early Spring…and then, early summer.
My flowers are sprouting, the frogs are singing, birds are chirping, the river is rising, the snow is melting…for today celebrate, "It is Spring!"
Out of habit I wore my smart wool socks to work, long sleeve shirt…and it was 81 degrees.
This Spring/Summer arrived so quickly, we are having to hurry to catch up to nature. One day putting wood on the fire, to the next day putting on screens…and sweating. Honestly it was Ugg boots one day and going without a jacket the next. From 30 degrees to 70 and then into the 80's.
Instead of the long drawn out Spring, we had the high speed version!
My middle daughter's birthday is on the 27th, and usually we have, mud, fog and rain, mixed in with dirty slushy snow…it looks like this year all the yuckiness will be gone, just grass turning greener. Imagine, we could actually have a 5 month summer!
This is Otter Lake, I turn around at the Mail Box up ahead. The woman who lives alone here, left a note for me to leave her mail at her neighbors if the lake rises more tonight. For most of last week, I was unable to drive down this road, for the mat was so thick and slushy. It is a private road, so the County doesn't plow it. Imagine in one week, all the snow has gone!
