Spring 2008 is upon us

[LAF]

Since moving one day it will seem like spring and then the next day like winter.

Spring has arrived finally here in SC. We have been having beautiful weather!!! It has been a wet spring, though and everything is looking very very green.

My favorite part of spring is opening up the windows and airing out the house. I especially like the "happiness" it gives our indoor pet cats who just sit in the open windows enjoying the breeze and watching the birds. They just love it when we open the windows (they told me so themselves. )

My cat, in pretty weather, if he is inside, he will usually set by a door or window and look outside. But if he goes outside, he will set by a door or window looking back inside the house. Go figure. :roll

So your cat talks to you. :uuhm:

We had a "cold front" move through here (I can no longer say or write that with a straight face since we live in sub-tropical Houston) this past week, and it was nice because we hardly had to use the A/C. It was especially nice because last week my mom was visiting and helping me paint a couple more rooms in our house, and we were able to open the windows and let fresh air in (and paint fumes out). We've finished painting, and also finished installing new faux wood blinds in 8 windows. The blinds replaced fabric "honeycomb" shades that were difficult if not impossible to clean, and they were ugly too. The blinds are much nicer. :smile They'll keep the kitchen and family/living room cooler...just in time! :lol

Please, don't send cold rainy weather this way!

Do you know where Webster is, my wife has a 1st cousin who lives there.

Back in the summer Linda and I made a quick trip down there to pick up her aunt who is Linda's mother's twin sister.

One of my favorite signs of Spring.........can you identify this? (photo taken yesterday)
(I predict that PE will guess it first.)

It looks like Rhubarb. :Green

We haven't had a good soaking rain here for almost two weeks. This is too dry for spring-time. We need more April showers. :sad

[JerryNumbers]

We just got April showers, does that mean we will have May flowers?

We just got April showers' date=' does that mean we will have May flowers?

Yepper, it surely is........can't wait to start picking it. It's been a bit dry here, too, but the temps have been great.

My wife makes a sauce with rhubarb and mashed strawberries that is really good. :Green As can be expected it takes a LOT of sugar. :lol:
