Punxsutawney Phil may have seen his shadow, but it seemed like spring today, after way too much winter. The snow has almost melted completely away and it is warm enough to have the door to the back porch open. Even Emma Lee is contemplating what is would be like to go looking for her shadow today.In spite of the dire situation in our town with the local meat packing plant laying off upwards of 1500 people, everyone was out and about today and most were in a jovial mood. Even old ladies like me caught the scent of spring in the air. In the parking lot at Wal-Mart, I rode to my car on the back of the shopping cart as if it were a scooter, then drove home with the car windows open.
They say, whoever that ubiquitous 'they' is, that there's another storm on the way. Maybe so, but I think I'll spend the rest of this day kicking up my heels!
