It feels like this is a very long spring this year. Home in Arizona has been lush and full of desert blooms. Early this year, I saw the dogwoods and magnolias of Georgia blossom. Our latest trip through Wyoming, South Dakota and Colorado have extended spring quite a bit, because these states are just getting […]
