[TheForge] spring cleaning Kinda OT:

[Peter Fels & Phoebe Palmer]

Some of us are slaves to the arbitrary calendar.
Some of us gear our behavior to  actual external and internal events.
Pragmatically, some heed must be paid to both.
I rebell against the tyranny of the calendar,
and i pay for that.
The sea of mud season speaks loudly.

While aggree that spring weather arrives at different times that far north.  Spring is never the less a clander event not a weather event.  Spring is defined as the time when the sun crosses the plane of the earth's equator, making night and day of approximately equal length all over the earth and occurring about March 21 (vernal equinox or spring equinox).  Not trying to be difficult, but Spring and spring weather aren't always the same.

Personally I schedule a workshop with our local group in May.  That forces me to clean up the winter mess.
