Singing in the rain -- NOT!

We're not singing in the rain

Tomorrow is April 1st and we are not liking the joke that Old Man Winter is playing on us with this cold and nasty weather. "Singing in the Frozen Precipitation" just doesn't have the same ring! 

One thing is for sure, we are ready for Spring to spring into action. Although it officially began on March 21, the temperatures certainly haven't been spring-like in our neck of the woods. Besides a few daffodils poking their heads through the soil and Robins fluttering about, we haven't seen any indication of the end to winter.

Pissed off at Punxsutawney Phil, Mom has been on vigilant alert for groundhogs raring their ugly heads at the edge of our property. Thankfully for them she hasn't spotted any of the rascally rodents, because I fear that her gun-slinging Annie Oakely side might come out of hibernation should she see one.
