Spring has arrived – Finally!
Those of us in Iowa, and elsewhere in the Midwest, have had a long, cold, snowy winter. I feel like I am just com
ing out of hibernation. I got my car washed, got the winter grime off, and I went to work for the first time in months without a coat. The first spring flowers are starting to bloom, but most of the trees still have no leaves, not even buds – about 3 weeks later than usual. But at least it’s here.
I think we’ve all been depressed, and I wonder how the pioneers ever survived. Now I am ready to start planning my gardening projects and thinking about cleaning off the porch. If I tell you in a couple of months how much I hate the hot summer, remind me about the winter we just had.
Do you have spring fever? Do you feel like you just got out of hibernation?
