Tracking Spring

February set a new record for snow as a second 10" snow day came on President's Day. We have only had a day of 70 degree temperature so far as 50's are the norm. Spring break was this week and Jane and I went to Frankenmuth overnight for the first time in years. The Ybarra's went to Florida for a month and we fed Uncle Tom breakfasts on the weekends with Andy and Sandy. They flew back on Tuesday and Grampa is glad to be back as he said it was too long and hot. I also began my 6th decade which definitely makes me a senior citizen. The Earth quaked in Japan at 8.1 on March 11 and radiation will increase on our planet. A 7.1 aftershock yesterday further stressing the nuclear plants damaged at Fukushima. Gas prices keep going up as panic over Libya and the Middle East in general leads to greed and speculation. I've been busy subbing and was at Riddle all last week in Mrs. Crutcher's first grade. Lukas and Phillip have only a month of school this term as they drift in or out of the house. Without love where would we be now? Take one day at a time and the tracks of spring will follow in time with or without us.
