Well if you're in the East like us, it's cold!


I suspect its because its been both cold and dry most of this winter,
and now continuing into the spring.

I don't remember my grass growing so little at this time of year, and
that wind from the NE is still pretty cold.

Having said all that, the weekend (esp Sun) was really good here and I
painted half the outside of the house and fell asleep on the grass by
the pond in the sun. It was lovely.
