I was over at Widget's House this morning, scooping after letting the dogs out, and noticed blind Brody standing on bare ground. I thought, wow, it's been a long time coming. Brody seemed to be enjoying the change. Just in the past couple of days the last few inches of snow and crusty ice have finally melted away to reveal the brown grass and dirt underneath. You can see we still have some ribbons of snow and ice in the yard, and out beyond, too. But most of the front yard at Widget's House is now bare and, well, muddy from all the snowmelt.
Yes, Brody the real dirt has returned after all that white stuff took over for so long. I bet all the little paw prints are fun to clean up! Happy Spring!

Brody must be inhaling all the lovely smells of fresh earth, mud and springtime. He's a sweetie. I hope he is doing well. I seem to remember he was very shy when he arrived.

And I just KNOW all those babies are loving that mud!
Must make a lovely mess on the floor when they come back in, but hey, mud means spring time then summer and warm sun....
