Well it’s time for an update.
Is it Spring? There are signs. A large blue jay, or perhaps a blue bird, came strutting across the railing of our back porch.
If that wasn’t enough, “Chippy”, our friendly and ultra-cute furry friend came out of his burrow beneath the back deck. He scurried from hole to hole (beneath gaps in the decking), and was being followed by a small sparrow, as though the sparrow couldn’t quite figure out what “Chippy” was.
Another sign of Spring is the renewed activity of all our squirrels. They are running around the yards and trees, and activity indicates they are rebuilding their nests. Daffodils are about to bloom, and grape hyacinths are blooming. Tulip sprouts are also in sight. Another Spring marker is the absence of an ugly raised bed planter; it has been consolidated into the nearby, larger planter.
So … these are a few of the reasons I’ve not been able to get a segment of Sooley Base ready for the writers group review. Ah the distractions ….
