Spring came very early this year. All the snow is mostly gone all over the city and the lawn is getting a tinge of green.
The roads are kicking up LOTS of dust. It’s 2 months early, but it’s almost time for the water trucks and street sweepers.

Thanks...I’m ready to get it done. One of the guys at work, who just happened to get his eyes done a year ago, at the same place, said he would take me. If it has to be a Wednesday, I will probably take him up on it.

Early Spring is a good thing. I don’t understand why liberals complain about global warming. That’s like complaining about unicorns, or a leprechaun’s pot of gold. Bring it on!
