Finally, First sign of spring

For me, the REAL first sign of spring is the flocks of geese happily honking their way back home, from their southern sojourn.

Spring sign for me: I cycled to work in only shorts and two thin long sleeve layers; even though it sprinkled, I was plenty warm.

We need more gravel at my place as well. The ground eats it up!

First sign of spring is I can`t get out of the back lane in the P car because there is 4 inches of water in the ruts either side of the snow. The plus side is I should be able to work on the P car because it will be warm enough soon.

Female student near U of M's campus wearing a miniskirt last night. I think she was possibly Latino because of the way she filled it out. It kept riding up on her, she kept pulling it back down.

I found it rather amusing because I myself had to keep pulling my pants back up from all the weight I've been losing.



EDIT: Sample photo off the Internet.......................the crocuses are pushing their way up through the grass.

Daffodils peaking up on the south side of the garage. Cardinals are calling. Had an owl make me jump last night when it called in the dark...must have been in the tree right next to me as it was LOUD.
