    I definitely noticed the extra daylight in the evening this past week and really appreciate it. Although I'm looking forward to spring for gardening, planting trees, and a few outdoor projects, I'm in no rush for it to get here though. As I get older, none of the seasons last as long (in my mind) as they did when I was a kid. Years tick by like months now :confused:

    More often than ever before I'm being bothered by the passing of time. Things I'm hoping to pass on, projects, kids growing up out and away, the old grumbly dog getting older by the minute....

    I have noticed. But. Good luck on the early spring SAV. It seems like each of the last 3-4 years the consistent colder temperatures come in later and stay later. April (Spring) Seems to be like late winter now. (Crappy and cold.) Almost like the weather moved a month later.

    Absolutely.
    Seems to happen every year, too.


    20ºF today and some ******* was out riding a bike .
    In Summer bike gear shorts and a tee.
    I've done some riding in the Winter, in the snow even, but I dressed for it.
