Hello, my red breasted robins! How are you? Mr. OrbsCorbs’ blog picture of the growing greenery and Mr. Drew’s and others’ comments on robins have kindled an early case of spring fever in me. Oh my, there is still plenty of snow on the ground and lots of nip in the air. It’s going to be awhile yet before the thaw and muck of March and April start coming up roses, literally. And all Wisconsinites have weathered late winter and early spring storms. But when the sun does shine now, it shines a little brighter and a little warmer. The days are a little longer, too. And some plants even have the audacity to start budding. Can baseball and/or love be far behind?"When the Red Robin Comes Bobbin' Along" - ‘Whispering’ Jack Smith, 1926:
Sorry about jumping to video so soon in my blog, but, as I said, I have spring fever, and I feel joyous. I hope that each and every one of my Irregulars catches it soon, too. Mr. Hale-bopp has a vast understanding of the workings of the cosmos and can explain how our planet is rotating and tilting on its axis in orbit around our sun, which in turn is rotating and tilting on its axis, ad infinitum. The northern hemisphere of our planet is coming into spring. All that means to me is more sun, more green, more birds, more growth, more air. Warmer air. Warmer people. Warmer times.
Warmer climes, like the United Arab Emirates, where they just held their annual camel beauty

You can listen to some of the proceedings here:
And that’s why they call Wednesday “hump day.” Tee-hee, oh, I’m sorry, no. They call it that because I bust my hump to deliver my blog to you. And that’s because I love you and I enjoy spending quality time with you each week. I am so grateful that you take the time to read my blog. Thank you.
I see better times ahead for dear Racine, my friends, accompanied by better weather. Get out and enjoy some of it.

Be careful! Melting ice is very slippery. Mind your steps, my dears. Imprimatur!

My dearest Madame... hope you have fully recovered from your previous tumble on the ice and the bug that had a hold of you.
I am looking forward to firing up the grill, pulling out a lawn chair and watching the airplanes fly overhead and leave contrails.
Spring is in the air. The kids are getting squirrely. More spats between them over what I assume are love interests. Oh my. Did the Milwaukee Public schools ever decide if they would/could distribute condoms to the sexually active teens to stop some of the teenage pregnancy issues this area is overwhelmed with?
