For I do hope, for you my good friend, that the green stick sees brown ground soon! And that the Phoebe continues her song (or his song as the case may be, but Phoebe is rather girly). <br /><br />All this points to is - no not spring (well yes but) dear summer! Yes! Haying and sweltering heat, the mud will only be toe deep and only if I make it and no one will demand I clean!<br /><br />Have a lovely day and toss the ball a few more times for Chance, for me.Lannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16018584509455303394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-22694377436316856272011-03-10T12:51:31.074-06:002011-03-10T12:51:31.074-06:00Great post Connie.
