If this warm spell continues, we will soon be suffering from spring fever and wishing the winter was over. Now, don't take this the wrong way. For the record, Heather and I both love winter and we hope for record-breaking snowstorms that last for days. The more snow, the better, we say!
But, once the snow starts to melt and we are out shoveling slush off the driveway in t-shirts and shorts, we start to wish we could be gardening. We have 2 vegetable gardens, strawberries in a raised bed, and flower beds all over the yard. As Heather always says, "You can take the boy off the farm, but you can't take the farm out of the farmboy."
I am still hoping for significant snowstorms this year but with each passing mild day, the hint of spring makes me that much more eager to play in the dirt. One day soon, spring fever is going to overwhelm my love of winter and snow. When you hear me say "I don't want any more snowstorms!", you will know, spring fever is here to stay.
