Today, they say, is the last warm day for the foreseeable future.  Since I don’t have to be in Ann Arbor till 2, I put the dog in her kennel and headed outside for some yardwork.  What a joy that is!  Mindless.  Aromatic.  Feeling muscles stretch.  Lovely.  I tossed out the hosta leaves and peony stems and frozen mushy tomato vines.  I rolled up the hoses and swept away the grime from the back walk.  There’s still things to do, but the worst of it is done.  And the worst wasn’t all that bad!
