i'm starting to feel spring. like this morning, getting to my vehicle at like 7:55am and it wasn't extremely cold and you could kinda smell the spring. pretty soon i'll be shutting the heat off! i love spring...except i know what follows...death heat and 200$ monthly a/c bills.

Tonight is the first spring evening, and they are calling for dangerous wind chills.

I woke to hear birds chirping. Playing golf this afternoon. It's a start!

I got stopped 3 turkeys in the middle of the road on the way to work. Snow Sunday night and highs in the upper 30's for White Sox opening day. Couldn't ask for anything more really.

It's humid as hell here. It feels like August despite only being 70 degrees. I thought I'd do some work today in the yard. I did, about 10 minutes and was dripping wet. I decided to fire up the BBQ and take it easy the rest of the night.
