And it’s sure been a cold, cold winter
And the wind ain’t been blowin’ from the south
It’s sure been a cold, cold winter
And the light of love is all burned outIt sure been a hard, hard winter
My feet been draggin’ ‘cross the ground
And I hope it’s gonna be a long, hot summer
And the light of love will be burnin’ bright
…
It sure been a cold, cold winter
My feet been draggin’ ‘cross the ground
And the fields has all been brown and fallow
And the springtime take a long way around
God damn, I love that song. For those that don’t recognize it, its “Winter” by the Rolling stones on the Goats Head Soup album. If you haven’t given it a listen before, well, you should, you’ll recognize a bunch of good tunes on there. And if you have, but haven’t listened to it in a while, well, give it a spin – or whatever we do with digital music these days.
Spring is here! It was 72 F here in Severna Park today! Beautiful days. I grilled. I wore short sleeves. I knocked off work a tinsy bit early.
I’ve got spinach growing in my garden – it wintered over! So did the collards and kale that I never go around to picking. Even after the ridiculous snow and cold we had! And most extraordinarily, so did my parsley. I’m excited for the spring and getting my garden going again!
