ALMOST no more snow on Carmen's Bay; slick ice coats the surface of Lake Minnetonka. Yesterday a cross-country skiier was sliding across our Bay. Today, even the snowmobiles will question the safety of the ice. LOVE these days of 50 degrees. Spring is actually arrivingt! I see a few nubbins of plant shoots in my garden. Puddles abound; gooey mud is everywhere. Buddy, my Beagle, has such messy feet, his little paws have to be wiped many times a day as he loves to romp outside in the water and mud.
The view out my window has an absence of color. Only white and gray are in existence. But I know. By the weekend, I'm betting on a few patches of greening grass. I'm waking up from my winter sluggishness, getting out the seed catalogues and hanging up the baking with sugar and butter. Enough of sweet calories! Time to get out and walk once more...
