Walk the rails under a high blue sky. Find the sag in the leaning fence, and step--carefully--over rusted wire. Follow a peninsula of blond grasses through a lake of loam, and come, at last, to the timber's edge where gray branches trace the sky and rose hips curl near purple canes.

Ask the Old Man
Dear Old Man Weather,
What happened to spring? You know, that place between the hot and the cold.
When I lived in Baltimore, it seemed like sometime in April or May the weather went from 65 degrees; cold and damp, to 68 degrees, hot and muggy.
