Hope springs anew

By gawd...today made me think that spring might actually come.

The thermometer read damn near 70 degrees at one point, almost all the ice is melted in the river and our big maple in the front yard has buds!

Talk about strikin while the iron is hot. heh Two days ago, the buds weren't there.

But then, of course, they're callin for the temp to drop like a lead balloon...again. And more fuckin snow...again.

But boy...was it ever nice to open the window and let the fresh air in, even if it was only for a couple of hours. I went and bought a new console table which lead to a little re-arrangin which, of course, led to a little dustin and cleanin. The Zigster even cooked up a coupla nice strip steaks on the grill. 'Course, we pretty much use the grill year-round, anyway.

I hope Mother Nature wasn't just prankin us a little. She can be such a fickle bitch.
