    There is life in the herb garden and bulbs are peeking through the snow :D Even if winter wages on, at least I've had a glimpse of spring today!!
    got a car...got some gas...oh let's get out of here-get out of here fast...
    I hope you get this message but your not home...I will be there in just a minute or so...
    I want to go but I want to go with you.

    Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime. -MT

    I've had enough, said enough, felt enough. I'm fine, still in it.

    It's been a " cold" winter down here in Florida too ;) . Looking forward to pushing the clocks forward in a few weeks. Keeps the sun on the mountains a little longer in Colorado :mrgreen: . I love spring skiing, heading back to the mountains in a few weeks. Can't wait!
    So, What you Giving ?........ (Thanks Speedy, Alesek, & Arq+friends)
    What You Giving

    I suggest you step out on your Porch.
    Run away my son. See it all. Oh, See the World!

    gloomy, chilly...whatever.
    to me, it's not so cold, but it IS gloomy. a bit of rain, a bit of snow, bad winds earlier....grey skies....yea, gloomy. just will make that first beautiful, blue-skyed, sunny day that much more welcome and enjoyable! 8-)

    Yes! One of my favorite parts. I can imagine it now.

    The red wing black birds that winter in flocks with us are singing their summer song now instead of their fall and winter cluck cluck. They will be leaving soon, maybe even by the weekend, for northern parts. My summer residents are now getting their spring colors to woo their mates and soon I will see the migrating songbirds like the Rose Breasted Grosbeak and Indigo Bunting at the feeders for a little rest stop. Then my pretty little hummingbirds will return about the time the last couple Robins head to the mountains. These constants of nature always make me feel so secure. Life is good.
