In Like a Lion, Out Like a Lamb

It is March. It is probably the most unpredictable month for Long Island as well as other places. The temperature can moderate like today. Lucy and I took a walk to Barnes and Noble to do some studying. It was beautiful out. We can still get snow although none is predicted for the next days. We can get spring showers. The wind can whip like it is now. By the end of the month winter is gone and spring is here. All the signs of an early spring are around us. If the prediction for Saturday of 50 degrees holds I plan on starting the backyard spring clean up.

It is the end of one season and the beginning of another. It is a time of new life, rebirth and seeing things turn green. It is a time of corned beef and cabbage, of the St. Patty's Day Parade and shamrock. It is March. It is when we can say these words with offending someone, "Go fly a kite!" It is perfect weather for that!
