Oh yes, there was that 83 degree day on a Sunday afternoon three weeks ago that I was able to get it out and take it for a spin through the "Hot Dog Stand" in Grand

The calendar says that we are nearly a full month into Spring, but most of us in Mid-Michigan aren't feeling it.

Spring is in the air, and I am itching to get my garden all prepped and ready to start planting flowers.  My wife loves the bird feeder and bird bath I bought for her.  She even loves the solar powered lights that kick on at night.  How would she respond if I told her I was going to put in a 'flower potty?'

Ok..Whether you believe in the whole Groundhog thing or not, it makes for lots of  TV coverage Feb 2nd.
