 Winter Winding Down
With temperatures looming in the 50's, it appears that winter on the mountain may be on the downhill slide. Looking at my backyard, it doesn't seem imminent. There is still a two foot skirt of snow around my lilac bush outside my window, but there are branches defiantly budding, as if to mock the snow. We all know there are more storms; more plowing, colder temperatures headed our way. At least, we are headed toward spring.
As I spend so much time driving through the neighborhood, I love to see people outside embracing winter and sunshine. Snowshoers on the trails in Maple Hollow, cross-country skiers in Deer Ridge III, and kids sledding in EagleCrest and Southfield have got the right idea. It certainly looks inviting to take the dogs for walks, the kids in their strollers, and even runners and bikers come out from under the rocks like lizards basking in the sunshine!
With the Sundance Film Festival, and the Winter Olympics behind us; there are boat shows, home shows, garden shows all reminding us of the changing of the seasons. The stores are stocked with Easter baskets, and swimsuits. One may actually think that spring is on its way!
Time to enjoy the last of winter!
Warm spring thoughts,

Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody.
