Today is absolutely beautiful. It is perfect for the first day of Spring. As I was driving to Lowes to help Michael pick out some much needed things for our new home via long distance phone shopping, everywhere around me were signs of the season.
Trees overloaded with pink flowers. People walking along walking trails--alone, with a friend, with a dog. I saw a collie, 2 shelties, a golden retriever, a lhasa apso being carried by his owner, and 4 or 5 various other dogs all out enjoying the weather with their owners. I saw dads biking with their children. Long empty parks were filled with children and backyard trampolines were being stretched to their limits with bouncing children. People were driving with their convertible tops down and cruising on their motorcycles.
Lowes was filled with people buying flowers for their yard and searching for the perfect backyard grill. The carts in the grocery store were filled with hamburgers, steaks, hot dogs and charcoal. People around here have Spring Fever, and today is the treatment.
