For the last 3 or 4 weeks we have been watching the signs of Spring. Some of the trees have red buds on them and some have green buds. In the last week the leaves have been popping out. One tree has green leaves and the next one have red leaves. Then the next tree the leaves are turning yellow and falling off. I told Vern it looked like it was snowing leaves. The magnolia trees are blooming and some other trees are in bloom. Those trees are so pretty. Last year we went through spring 3 times -- in Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Iowa. We'll see how it goes this year.
Another sign of Spring here is the sports here. The high schools and colleges are playing soccer and baseball and softball. We went and picked up a few groceries the other night and a couple of boys were in the store in their baseball uniforms. February and March and they're playing baseball!!!! On the news they said one team had all ready played 22 games.
Its starting to warm up to normal temps. 60s and low 70s for highs and upper40s and 50s for lows. Not soon enough for me. Someone told Vern you wanted to be gone by the first of May, because it is starting to get hot. Good thing we are leaving for Pennsylvania the end of March. Will be in PA until the end of April and at the Ledges by the first of May.

Spring sounds wonderful !!! Saturday is the first day of spring and we have snow in the forecast--maybe 3-4 inches. It won't last long and hopefully that will be the last of the snow. Have a safe trip to PA.
