To the superstitious, pardon my use of the f-word in the title of this article.\u00a0 I intend no pun.\u00a0 I\u2019m just anxious for spring to sweep away a very odd winter.\u00a0 This has been an extremely warm and snowless one and now with the pandemic altering how we work and live I\u2019m impatient for good weather to get me out of the house and make the world more interesting.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m tired of tv and the internet and want some real things to see and do.\u00a0 I read that the Vernal Equinox will be March 19th<\/sup>.\u00a0 This is the earliest it\u2019s been in 124 years.\u00a0 I guess that has something to do with this being a leap year.\u00a0 So, this is the last week of winter.\u00a0 In honor of that I\u2019ll go out today and get a few photos of leaves budding and flowers sprouting and anything else that says spring.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile I think I\u2019ll look for some cheerful topics to write on.\u00a0 I\u2019m pretty bored with doom and gloom.\u00a0 I\u2019ll search for some activities that I haven\u2019t been able to do since last year.\u00a0 And that will put me in a better mood for writing.\u00a0 So, excuse me for a while.\u00a0 I\u2019ll be back later this morning to see what new catastrophe has descended upon us.\u00a0 But until then you all have my permission to go have some latest winter fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
