the next theme is . . . SIGNS OF SPRING

It was a long winter, and many of us in the northern hemisphere have been waiting with anticipation for the spring season.  Each year, as the sun crosses northward over the equator, along with it comes the unmistakable signs of spring's arrival.  This week, we challenge you to think outside the box and show us some of those things that make you think and feel SPRING!  Here are a few to get you started...

Those first warm days when jackets are optional.

That "fresh air" feeling that makes you jump for joy...

OK, so do you see where I am going with this?  Try and challenge yourself to really think about what spring means in your neck of the woods--how do you feel?  what are you doing? what's happening in your neighborhood?

The temperatures are rising my friends, now get out there and show us what you are up to!
