Ok, not officially for a few weeks . The temps are in the 60's and the Turkeys are doing their thing.
I am floating my favorite river Saturday!
It's Spring!

Nice pic Dub. Spring officially starts on Sunday!
Well, I would like to think it's here too! I haven't had to wear a jacket all week! One of my patients went fishing in the creek today...I'm going tomorrow if I can, if not, then on Saturday...ahhhhhhhhhh, I can feel the tension rising off my shoulders as I type, lol.

I need to start taking my camera to work. The cell phone doesnt do the area justice. It's in the middle of the gas/oil field (private) in western Colorado where the fracing operations are under fire. There is so much wildlife, and the creeks are full of Cutthroat trout (Greenbacks). No hunting and no fishing, and to be honest. I like it that way.
We got rain, a cold rain here, we just got finished with alot of rain and some snow. Burt looking at the temps ahead day by night highs and lows I agree, its official. Spring is springing...
"Because by the Grace of God I can, be on a beautiful mountain stream with a friend , have the water boil from a 12" Native Brookie taking a self tyed dry,and feel it on the end of my cane... It don't get no better than that..."
Saturday night the frogs were in chorus for the first time this year. That is my first indicator that spring is near. Next is one of my dogs has started to shed her winter coat. It is happening.

So what does it mean if I'm beginning to croak and shed my winter coat?

You need to head west and go fishing with Kerry!
We have flowers poking their heads up through the ground and the first robins arrived last week. Still is not spring yet until the peepers (frogs) get ice in their eyes three times.
I forgot about the robins. They have around my place for a week or two, maybe a bit longer.You need to head west and go fishing with Kerry!

The green houses where I work are filling up with spring color in preperation for the upcoming gardening season. My company will make 80 to 90 percent of its income in the next three to four months. I will post a picture or two later. Very pretty sight when a large green house is in full bloom.

Around here, Turkeys do their "thing" in February, on frozen lakes, so I'm not holding my breath. lol
It is suppose to go above freezing and up to the low 50's in the next couple of days though! When all this whiteis gone...THEN I'll start to get exited about spring.
