From Gerald R. Lucas

Is It Spring?

March has kind of gotten away from me. I’m not sure if there was any more going on than usual, but I just didn’t get to the journal everyday. What a slacker.

Spring has arrived, and the Cherry Blossom Festival — as well as the blossoms themselves — have pretty much come and gone. Still, some warmer weather will be welcome. I plan to ride the Scrambler quite a bit more.

In fact, I rode down to Warner Robins on Friday to sign the taxes, and the weather was just about perfect for riding — sunny and cool. If it would only stay that way, I could put up with all the other drawbacks of living in Georgia.

Tomorrow is April 1, but I feel like a fool all year long.

Here are a couple of pictures from two years ago at the Strawberry patch.
