And They Call This Spring

The ditch is flowing.
I've been mowing.
April wind's blowing.
And...it's SNOWING!!!

Well, shut my mouth. I was almost feeling a little guilty for not blogging this whole dang month -- and I was gonna wait until May Day. Taking a little spring blog break.

But when I opened the shades this morning and saw it snowing, I just had to do something. Besides laugh, I mean. The world's wackiness is a continual source of delight, isn't it?

Holy shit! It's April 29. I've been mowing constantly. Was going to water the lawn today. Guess now I can just hole up in my nice, warm house and watch it snow. Again. Still.

Oh, it's beautiful on the green grass. Our daffodils made it; tulips too. We even had a huge young buck with sprouting antler buds yesterday in the back pasture. I was fixin' to go get pots and flowers and a cherry-tomato plant for a Topsy-Turvey porch planter.

April snow showers may mean no flowers. At least until mid-May.
