Spring has finally arrived, over a month late but better late than never. How can I tell it is officially spring?

1. I took a good time of my day to work outside. A late spring means much more work to do in a shorter period of time.

2) My friend Dawn stopped by to tell me about the opening of two new DMZ gardens, the third, The Healing Garden and the fourth, The Orchard. I am proud to have spent a little bit of time to help Dawn, the D and Marna, the M in the first DMZ garden. (I am the Z) DMZ is a good example of how a seed planted can grow and grow. The DMZ gardens in the Brochert Field District of Milwaukee have a new slogan: “From Trigger Fingers, To Green Thumbs.”

3) A person from the The National Network Opposing the Militarization of Youth, (NNOMY) wrote me today appreciating my research and a request to talk about collaboration. It is also a little bit of spring green.

4) Using leftovers I made a delicious Middle East rice and lamb dish tonight. Creative cooking is a taste of spring.

5) A friend who I have not heard much from recently wrote me a letter of appreciation and friendship.

Oh yes, it was sunny and warm, the ultimate sign that spring is here.
