I published this post for the first time back in April. I’m still not on Facebook.

Finally it’s springtime. And we’re not experiencing one of those raging spring blizzards…yet. We will, but today the sun is strong and the water’s running in the ditches and along the curbs. The world feels brand new and I almost do, too. I have to say, I really enjoyed the response I got from my […]
