Wonderful Weather

Sounds kind of corny to talk about the weather but when spring is only a few weeks away and we have warmer weather like we do right now, I feel like talking about the wonderful things it brings our way. I noticed on campus today that they have planted some new flowers and some other flowers are already coming up through the ground. Spring always reminds me of new life. Kind of like a starting over period. The flowers bloom, the grass becomes green and the birds start to sing. Our cows usually have their calves in the spring. There is new life everywhere. I had a really tough week this week but seeing all the signs of spring made me feel better. We sometimes go so fast through life that we fail to see the beauty around us. I used to sneak out of the house when I was a kid and go lay on the flatbed hay truck and stare up at the stars. Just the smells of the outdoors and the cool breeze blowing across my body was enough to put me to sleep. I really love snow and wintertime but when spring comes, I am just as happy to it. I hope everyone enjoys their spring break and uses it as a time to renew their spirit. We could all use a little break..
