It's Monday afternoon here as I type and the sun is shining brightly but many inches of snow still blanket the ground which has been the case since mid-February. It was snowing at three o'clock this morning because I heard the plow truck backing up on our rural road and got up to look where that incessant beeping sound was coming from in the middle of the night.

It is just above freezing at thirty-three degrees but tomorrow they are forecasting almost fifty degrees and rain. A warmup! The snow will be washed away! Well, for a bit. It seems the 's' word is in the forecast for Thursday with temps back down to twenty-four degrees. I am so ready for spring. I know it's coming. The first true sign of spring, Daylight Savings Time, begins this Sunday. Hoping the extra daylight hours help with the cabin fever and hoping more that this time next week I will be able to post my first sight of the robins returning to celebrate Spring. Well, a girl can hope!
