Spring is almost here!

I've turned the calendar page, and it's already three days into May! Today, I saw robins! Not right here in my yard, but their flight is unmistakeable. What a cheery sight. I also saw wild flowers--white crocuses, I think--peeking out from the dried grasses of last year. Two ducks and some geese winged their way overhead on their way to summer nesting grounds. Here, we're still waiting for that first flush of green, that tender, soft green of the first buds unfolding. That won't happen for another couple of weeks, and then, all along the highway, in every field, along every stream, the sight will be glorious!
