Spring Fever Comes Early

We have had three days of record high temperatures this week. It is still technically winter, but it feels like late June, early July. The grass is turning green and there are little buds on my weeping cherry tree. I do believe Spring Fever has broken out at my house! I am not a radical global warming alarmist, but it does seem that our weather has been strange. We have had other years like this, when we went straight from winter to summer, so I guess I do believe that weather is not static and that our planet is a living, "breathing", ever-changing entity. Weather seems to cycle around and everyone wants to pin blame on a lot of different things. I choose not to blame, but to look at it as our planet doing what it needs to do to continue giving us what we need. We also need to do as much as we can to help our planet thrive. Happy (early) Spring!
