In April, I was stuck in traffic a few miles from home and the drive seemed to take forever. Five minutes passed and we barely moved. I rolled my eyes. Would the drive ever end?

It starts off cold and wintry and then somewhere along the line, the trees start to bud, plants and flowers to pop up out of nowhere, and spring is here before you know it. For the record, Spring 2023 starts on Monday,... Continue Reading →
