SPRING IN THE AIR
Not for the warmth of temperature but Spring is coming slowly to our shore | For the moment, there is practically no snow | That's supposed to change tomorrow, which is to be expected, Spring isn't here yet | As the chimny in the picture shows, I've still got the woodstove going | But the harbingers are here |
Today was the Audubon Society's Eagle Watch | I didn't get to do the touristy part of the day's events | I'm not inclined to share with urban yahoos the eagle nests I know about ...they may actually go there | Instead I split and stacked wood ...that perpetual task of all wood heating home dwellers | But I appreciated the pleasant sunny day, and the task kept me warm all day | After all, until Spring actually arrives, gotta keep that wood stove fed | ¶ 22:31
