Start of the season


March is such a funny month.
It teases of Spring yet holds onto Winter.

I can tell that Spring is coming:
I saw a robin in my driveway
Al (my horse) isn't wearing his blanket during the day
The crocus are blooming in my garden
The cat wants to go out and sit in her chair

Other signs of Spring:
The daylight is getting longer
The horses are covered in mud
Al had his first bath of the season
Everyone is contacting me for lessons

Signs that Spring isn't quite here:
It is below freezing in the morning
The cat sleeps in at night
The horses aren't really shedding yet
There isn't enough light to ride at 7pm
