Guess who just got back today?
Those wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed, haven't much to say
But man, I still think those cats are great

They were asking if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
I told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazy

The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back, the boys are back)

You know the chick that used to dance a lot
Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd got
Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
I mean she was steaming

That night over at Johnny's place
Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
Man we just fell about the place
If that chick don't want to know, forget her

Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's bar and grill
The drink will flow and blood will spill
If the boys want to fight, you'd better let them

That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song
The nights are getting warmer, it won't be long
It won't be long till summer comes
Now that the boys are here again

The boys are back in town.

Another MLB season is upon us. Come on in, have a cold one, and share with us your memories of seasons past or hopes for this season.

Me? I'm not really into baseball, it's just a handy 'marker' in time for me. The seasons roll on, and it's now Spring. Time to get out of the workplace and head north to the mountains for a couple of days. You know, back to Nature for a bit before the Summer heat comes crashing down in all its glory.

Well I hope where you are you get a summer.

All we get here is Rain. That's why this country is so green.

Are you kidding me? I live where, in the height of summer, you can get red skin in about 15 minutes and a real sunburn in about an hour. Not even that long.

Pass the sunblock, please.

Been there, lack of humidity makes it much easier than here.
You can get burned and bathed at the same time.

Fire up the air conditioner!!!

After weeks of dry, cold and sunny weather, we finally have rain. This is a good time of the year.

Yeah spring has arrived here and there is a battle between the wind and the rain to see who makes the weather headlines.:'(

Nature is slowly turning green, the winds are warmer and the trees that looked dead are showing signs of life again.

The songbirds, and others of course, are returning and building their nests in our forest. A hawk, I couldn't determine which kind it happened too quickly, took out a morning dove in midflight outside my kitchen window yesterday. The was a blurr then and "explosion" of grey feathers. Nature is a dichotomy isn't it?

I know not you nor your other half so that, sir/madame, is completely up to you.
