Hopefully we’ll get lots of mud this Spring.

I had shoulder surgery in December. So this mild winter has been great. Just cleaning snow off my car after work was difficult for a few weeks. I like living in Madison. I’m thankful that we don’t have major weather problems like other parts of the country/world, except for an occasional tornado or blizzard. I’ve thought about moving to somewhere warmer, but I don’t want to be that far away from the grandkids. Three years until retiring, maybe move then?!?!

But if it means we have to get a ton of rain to have enough water for growing, well I would rather have a bunch of small snows, the melt on contact kind even. So should we anticipate heavy spring rains?

Didn’t really feel like winter!
