Spring Is in the Air

Spring is in the air! There is no season that I appreciate more than Spring! I realize that this season in Calgary brings many different thoughts and emotions, but the sight of bits of green grass, tulips and robins bring me joy!

Maybe this is the season to start a new hobby, or learn to run, fitness walk or golf. You can find books on gardening, de-cluttering, cleaning, love, healthy eating and more!

Frankie Flowers new book “Pot it Up: 150 fresh ideas for beautiful, easy to grow containers"; Marjorie Harris new Thrifty Gardening: From the Ground Up and No Guff Vegetable Gardening by Donna Balzer plus many more new titles on getting that garden started. And now that winter has passed maybe it is also time to think about a hotspot to visit next winter, or plan for that great summer vacation. Spring is the time!

This age old poem reminds us all of the wonderful sightings of spring, take it all in!

Spring has sprung;
The grass has ris.
I wonder where
The birdie is?

There he is
In the sky.
He dropped some
Whitewash in my eye!

I am no sissy;
I won't cry.
I'm just glad
That cows can't fly!
