Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

It does look great after a snowfall, though I do not care to move back to Northern Winters anytime soon. NC, where I have lived for almost 30 years now, is about as far North as I want to live. 22 years of Michigan winters cured me of them. :)

It is so beautiful! Do not worry. I will not covet your snow, not a bit, not one whit. Looks like it would be difficult to find a golfing ball in all of that. It will be 68°F today at my HQ. A flock of robins (must be 30 of those guys) will be in the hayfield excavating grubs; harbringers, you know? The ancient maple tree is budded out in red preparing for photosynthesis in a few more lengthening days. It is March with all of its madness (basketball aside) and who knows what the weather will bring? She came in like a lamb. It is March in the southland and the equinox and April showers are not far off. Tis the wane of winter and I am looking forward to my summer uniform of shorts and T-shirts.

Keep your beauty and all that it entails; and I will keep mine.

But what color is that porch? Is it white and gold or blue and black?

hmmm, that snow on the table top looks like the kind we used to take, mix with some flavored sugar water and make "natural" snow cones out of.

Of course, when I was a kid we still had leaded gasoline so there was most likely more lead in the snow than today.
