and one could say that it is summer again...

based solely on the school year and such, but one would be wrong. It is SPRING! Snow stopped falling. The peculiarly miserable thing known as rainy cold days have passed. And there are flowers, everywhere! zillions of dandelions, hundreds of tulips, trees and shrubs covered with blossoms! And my favorite tree, tulip trees, do live up here, they just bloom a few months later than they do in SC or TX. And in a surprising turn of events, I have taken up softball, despite getting hit in the head while attempting to bat at the first practice. Still a smidge sore, but getting better, and over the worries of bleeding/skull fracture.
