Vernal Equinox
It’s that time of year. Spring arrives at 6:44AM CDT this morning. You can watch it come at Archæoastronomy.
The air is already filled with pollen and the live oaks are starting to drop last year’s leaves.

"Все счастливые семьи похожи друг на друга, каждая несчастливая семья несчастлива по-своему."
"Кто что ни говори, а подобные происшествия бывают на свете, - редко, но бывают."
"A person who has a cat by the tail knows a whole lot more about cats than someone who has just read about them."
Mark Twain
"There are two novels that can change a bookish 14-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."
"The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it."

LadyMin´s last blog post..Officially Spring
I noticed your change to gardening, which is in line with your blog.
daylight!
making the switch to daylight savings time is always a pain, and i was actually against the earlier start this year, but i do like the psychological lift from having both more daylight at the end of the workday and the days are longer than the nights.

We actually exceeded the 12 hours a couple of days ago, but the don’t have watches so I have to remember to shift feeding times.
