IT'S TRUE...IT'S TRUE....SPRING IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER!

It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade. ~Charles Dickens

Oh glorious day! It was simply beautiful today, not a cloud in the sky, sun shining with wonderful warmth......a feeling of renewal that we've waited for all winter. We got outside and hooked up the hose and washed our cars. We wondered to ourselves and outloud where everyone was on such a breath-taking day. It was much too pretty a day to be all cooped up inside....there will still be days for that in the next few weeks. But we can see the light at the end of the tunnel and it is sunshine and it is pretty flowers and bushes and trees opening their eyes and stretching to the light after a long long winter's sleep. On a day like today you know what faith is, especially in Maine.

I think Mr. Fleischman should have ended his little verse with "Maine" instead of Cleveland:

You can't see Canada across lake Erie, but you know it's there.
It's the same with spring. You have to have faith, especially in Cleveland. ~Paul Fleischman

I hope you got outside today and enjoyed the day!
