Spring!

[Greylock]

I'm normally a fall and winter kinda guy. I love a dark, drizzly cool day. And Mother Nature sprung one on me, and the rest of the Midsouth, today. It was a lovely damp and stormy day, one I don't get to enjoy too often. I usually spend most of my day in a large, climate controlled store, but my rehab has me spending a lot of time on my back porch.

And Mother Nature fooled me today. Made it all fall-like, but she snuck one over on me. This morning, when I first sat on my backporch, the nearby trees were all bare. A few had little nubs started. But all day long, I stepped out back maybe every hour or two to enjoy the storms. And every hour or two those little nubs got larger and larger, and greener and greener. Most of the view from the porch is now a budding woodsy wonderland. Kinda wish I had a camera to take slow motion pics, but the image in my mind is plenty good on its own.

I'm all flush with spring gooberhood now. Thanks a lot, Mother N.

Everyspring I announce with daffodils.

They are out in force.

Happy spring!

Take your daffodils and go away!
My nose has no limit for its hat of spring.

When you live in South Carolina, spring is the yellow-greenish dust that covers and coats everything, a powdery mess.

Spring is sprung, the grass is ris,
I wonder where the birdies is.
I heard the birds were on the wing,
Oh isn't that the silliest thing?
I always thought the wings were on the bird.
--Somebody or other.

Heh

I never had to worry about hurricanes when I used to live in Florida...... and the city I lived in nearly got razed to the ground by Andrew...... Hadn't had to worry about them until we moved to NC..... :\ Then had to deal with the remnants of one coming back from Dragoncon in Atlanta.....

Guess windstorms don't do that well at gaming conventions.

Yesterday it was sunny, 80, a nice breeze, and dinner outdoors at the Greek cafe. Life is good.
