Spring has spring the grass has riz, I wonder where the birdie is?
Spring begins with the vernal equinox at 6:02 A.M. (CDT) on March 20, 2013 in the Northern Hemisphere. Here’s more about the start of spring! The Vernal Equinox: Ah, spring! This season brings increasing daylight, warming temperatures, and the rebirth of flora and fauna. The word equinox is derived from the Latin words meaning “equal night.” Days and nights are approximately equal everywhere and the Sun rises and sets due east and west.
And for some of us in Opelika, it means a return to being normal! I will not eat lunch at the desk for the next four months, but only on a deck or patio and enjoy the sun. Ah, to be alive again!
