Spring

Two reasons I know that it is decidedly and irrevocably spring:

1.

I have been looking for the first cherry tree to bloom, and I finally found it!

2. The Great Shed has begun. This means that Lucky the Dog will have to be brushed several times a week for the next few months. And then he will get a big haircut.

I am going camping today for three days. It is too short compared to all my other epic spring break camping trips, but some is better than none, right? And of course, more camping is planned for the rest of the spring and summer.
