I can see grass outside under the tree. And I bought my golf membership. It is almost here right?

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot wait for warm spring/summer days, and like you, now that I see grass I don't want to see another snowflake again this year (not likely). I love winter but not in March!

I noticed lots of people sitting outside drinking coffee in Uptown today; I wasn't quite up to that, but they looked pretty happy basking in the sun. (and I did strip down to just a sweater while out on a walk yesterday! Admittedly I was working up a sweat pushing a stroller up the hill (my toddler son was freaked out by the melting ice and didn't want to wak), but still...

I spend each winter eagerly awaiting the spring!

Right now we're just being teased, but... it's nice to get a bit of a start on the snowmelt! More than makes up for how utterly ugly it is out...

I'm ready, though we cut down some trees this winter so our yard is full of little sticks so I just see a project coming soon.

That sun sure feels nice as it get's higher in the sky these days. With daylight savings time kicking in a couple of Sundays we'll be having the sunset about an hour-and-a-half later by the end of the month than it is today.

On the othet hand, days start getting shorter in about 15 weeks.

Ive been ready for spring since right after Christmas! This winter seemed to drag on forever this year.
Love to see this weather and the stong sun just puts me in a better mood.

The snow is melting fast and furious here in SW Minnesota, but we still have a long ways to go. I hope the poor robbins can find some grass when then get up here as there are only a few patches here now.
