It's Good To Be Back.

While our Spring in Minot has been cool we are seeing green grass, some garden plants re-emerging, and of course dandelions. I think most of the migratory birds have returned, although I have yet to see any hummingbirds.

Another sure sign of spring to me is seeing "the boys of summer" return across the street at Corbet Field.

Reflecting back to the years that we had guinea pigs I remember how happy they were to graze in the back yard. I was always worry that an owl would spot them and take one or both away. Thank God it never happened.

Do you enjoy the cartoons written by my son (Timmothy N. Timm) which I use as a springboard to write my daily posts? His strip, Titus & Philemon, has run in two newspapers for years as well as being printed in my blog every day. Titus & Philemon (pronounced Phi - Lee -Man) are guinea pigs. Their owner is Joe. Timmothy has never repeated a joke/comic strip in the 12 years he has been writing it. He has never copied another strip, such as Peanuts or Garfield. You can follow Timmothy on FB as Titus & Philemon and you can also check him out on Instagram as Instagram.com/titus and philemon/ .For Timmothy's website type timmtimmothy.com into your browser. I tried to put it in a link here but it refuses to work. Do NOT put anything in front of timmtimmothy.com or it will not work.

Good morning, Bob... Spring has definitely sprung in Charlotte and in spite of the cooler days here and there... it's more like summer has made its appearance.

Good Monday morning, Bob. We have a cool but sunny morning in Maryland. A beautiful day and the dogwood trees outside of my home office window are beginning to bloom.

There is nothing Jackie likes more than to sit outside on the grass. She gets to see the neighbors, her doggie friends when passing and of course to bask in the sun.

Our girl, Baby, is more focused on the outdoors then she ever has been before Nick Vandekar, 610-203-4543 . In Baby's case I think she knows she is near the end of her life and wants to enjoy God's creation as much as possible.

We have lots of hawks and eagles in our neighborhood. I have seen them pick up rabbits and snakes...then fly away (I am pretty ok with the snakes).

Agreed Jeffrey DiMuria 321.223.6253 Waves Realty  but how horrible to see one grab a loved pet. 😨

Good morning Bob. The grass is really green and looking good as we have had plenty of rain. A pleasure to see. No guinea pigs though. Enjoy your day.
