IT'S SPRING

It is hard to believe that it was twenty below zero Thursday Morning, just four days ago. It is 42.8 degrees F right now. It warmed up on Friday and Spring came suddenly on Saturday. It seems like it is here to stay.

I walked out to the barn yesterday, a distance of one hundred yards, on the way I noticed the snow depth varied. There were wide swathes of bare ground in some places and other places where the snow was a couple inches deep, to more than five inches. I don't know if the snowscape varied that much because of the wind or it just melted faster by location, or both.

The chickens reacted to the change in the weather. They are usually tentative about their initial journey outside in the Morning. Today they couldn't wait to get out.

I am having difficulty keeping my mind on this blog. My son, Noah, has been living with us since June. He is an actor and he has an audition in California tomorrow. I need to take him to the airport, a two hour trip, and I have a few things to do before we go. I thought I would be able to do my usual blog first, but my mind keeps turning to the impending trip. So much for keeping my mind in the present moment. Oh well, I have given up perfection for Lent.

Expect me to write on Wednesday.

Love and Peace,  Gregg
