Signs of Spring

The truest sign of spring is when the robins return. This morning when I opened my patio blinds, there were two robins searching for food under my window. It must be spring!! All our trees are fully budded and people are turning on their sprinkling systems for the season. Motorcycles and convertibles are very prevalent in this part of the country year round, but really get going from now until November. White shoes and slacks are showing up in church, while tank tops, shorts, and sandals are the rule for shoppers. I've ordered my geraniums for this year from Pam's sorority and can't wait to work my fingers in the moist soil. Another big sign of spring for me is baseball season. The Red Sox are winning and the Rockies are losing....but there's still a lot of baseball season to go. Yesterday Pam and I toook Siena shopping for new summer clothes for Pam for work. Of course, Siena got some new onesies, a pair of jeans, and a sundress. As the ski racks come off the cars and the bike racks go up....the best season of the year is here.
