Monday Meanderings - 3.5.2018

March signals that true Spring is coming; some of the trees are budding, lawns are greening, Bluebonnet sightings are coming in. I say true Spring because the weather has been funny around these parts. A real roller coaster ride.

I showed you last week that Fred, the resident avocado tree has reached its maximum indoor altitude. Evidently, Fred heard us talking about "lopping" and "trimming" and decided to take evasive action. We came in the other day to find him in full mufti mode.

Not sure how to break it to him, but we were not fooled. "Move the plants outdoors" day is coming soon.

State and local elections are on tap. Consistent with my long-held belief that we should be able to mark out ballots "None of the above" we trudged down to early voting last week to make our dislikes known. And when we got back, Barb was sporting not one, but two "I voted" stickers.

Maybe there is something to this voter fraud controversy after all!

I turned on the TV last night, expecting the news, but got to watch the last hour of the Academy Awards. Pretty much explains why we only go to the movies once per millennium
