Spring!!!

The snow drifts are about gone.  Only a few left in our grove but firm enough to walk on top of rather than sink into.  The grass has a slight green tint to it meaning Richard will have to get the lawn mower out ad read to go in another month and my tulips are beginning to poke through the ground!  The only bad part is that all those noisy, obnoxious grackles have returned from their winter vacation south.  Now, I do love birds but these characters are not on that list.

A busy week.  Tonight I have a drawing class again.  I've always loved to draw but have gotten out of the habit with all that fabric to take care of in one way or another.  So I'm hoping this will jump start my interest in drawing more once again.  Last evening I drew a Sedge Wren singing from his marsh perch.


Tomorrow evening we will attend my grandson's induction into the National Honor Society.  He's a great kid and not just because he's my grandson and well deserving of the honor.  Thursday I have to do laundry and pack.  I'm headed off to Washington state to visit my sister for 10 days.  Ahhhh...
