Spring Ahead


Signs of Spring are appearing in the desert southwest. The sand is dappled with green shoots, tiny flowers are peeking through, trees are beginning to bloom and cactus are growing new buds. Balmy days are enjoyed by all. This is the season when young men dream of romance and old men dream of starting a garden. The DH is anxious to get home so he can get those seeds in the ground. He's already ordered online and is planning a stop at Earl May's when we arrive in Nebraska. Unfortunately, this is still several months away, as his garden is probably frozen solid and covered with snow. Oh, well, dreams of the future keep old men young.
