After a week of torrential rain, we finally have SUNSHINE in Obion County. Blue skies and 80 degrees mean: bed sheets go out to dry on the clothesline today!
With the first day of spring less than a week away, here are a few of my favorite things about springtime:
- Line-dried sheets
- Daffodils
- Spring peepers cheeping in the pond
- Emerald fields of wheat
- Babies! – calves, bunnies, chicks, kittens
- The smell of fresh-turned earth
- Phoebes nesting on the front porch
- Meadowlark and mockingbird song
- Wind whipping through open windows
- Bare feet
- Mud puddles
- A lively creek
- School on the front porch
- Longer daylight
- Honeysuckle perfume of the fresh-breath-of-spring
- Coffee on the porch swing with a friend
