Short Month

Gadzooks! It's the end of Feb. What a month. Two of our friends had babies. Three of our family members had birthdays (mine included). We survived some hefty snowfall and enjoyed a day or two off from work.

Now, alas, it's over. Here I am in a hotel in my hometown, lamenting how you can never really come home again. Things are so very different from year to year, generation to generation. This place hasn't been my hometown for 30 years, but the homestead my grandfather founded is still standing...yet even it's changed too much for my tastes.

Maybe I'll get a picture of the tumbleweeds at our old place. It's crazy.
