He smells something…..

He goes outside, puts his nose to the wind and sniffs repeatedly. And for a long time.

Last night, leaving our friends house, I took Mike’s arm and said “Do you smell that??”

It’s Spring. And it’s definitely in the air.  Coming soon to a frozen land near you……

With the warmer weather Bustopher is going out a lot, almost too much but I can’t say I blame him. If I had been cooped up inside for months on end I would be a bit stir crazy myself. I know that once the first nice evening comes around, whether the snow is gone or not completely, that he will go outside and we won’t find him for hours. There’ll be so much for him to check up on; all the neighbors he hasn’t seen all winter, new places the mice moved in to, the neighborhood animals he hasn’t tormented since Fall, all the old haunts- neighbors decks and basement windows, mostly- that he needs to re-acquaint himself with.  He’ll be busy. And muddy when he returns.

Happy February!
