Dale Does Yardwork

I think this is the earliest we've ever done beginning of the season raking.

12 Hours Daylight

Technically we're at 12 hours 01 minute daylight.

Warm March Day

I believe this has been the warmest day so far this year. Both pictures were taken just after 4:00 p.m. when my cell phone said it was 64 degrees. This is the first time we've opened up the porch this year.

More Motawi

Here's another Motawi tile I bought while visiting Sam and Becky back in 2010. It was also bought at Renditions in Weston, Missouri.

Motawi Tile Works

Mom gave me this arts and crafts style tile just this past Christmas. I think it's beautiful. It's by Motawi Tile Works of Ann Arbor, Michigan. She bought it at Renditions, a store in Weston, Missouri, a town not too far from where Sam and Becky live.
