Spring is coming

Any groundhog out this morning saw his shadow, although now the sky has clouded over. It was 24 degrees, but the moment I stepped outside, the sweet, musty smell of the earth filled the air. I love that smell - its like things are waking up and breathing in the soil. Plus, I smelled 3 skunks this morning on the way to work. Skunks are the true harbingers of spring.

I do love spring! You, obviously, don't live anywhere near me!

I can't wait! I love that smell too! I have about another month to wait for it.
