The Winter That Was

The signs of spring are unmistakable up here but we still have some acutely ugly reminders of winter around

and some not so unsightly reminders that it's really time to put into storage nonetheless.

I, too, am a big fan of Mr. Claus but at long last we need to let him grab a spring nap. I could be projecting but the hand to head pose seems like a sure sign of stress. The last thing you want at your first barbecue of the season is a hysterical with exhaustion Santa Claus stumbling around the place. Plus, reindeer eat 12 pounds of vegetation a day so say goodbye to your lawn!
