First Day of Spring

Spring is really when the new year seems to start. For farmers [bold added],
"Spring is an exciting time for us, because you're just starting the work, and there's something new as the ground is being turned over," says Jennifer Scheer, executive director of the Santa Clara County Farm Bureau. "Any losses or frustrations that you had last year are washed away and you're in a new place, starting fresh."
For lovers, science tells us the stirrings are from more than sunshine and extended daylight hours:
A circadian rhythm section of experts has declared spring a peak period for skyrocketing sperm counts in men and ovulation overdrive in women. No wonder spring is the leading season for unplanned pregnancies.
And for this allergy sufferer, a maintenance (an injection once every 28 days) level of immunotherapy has finally been attained. I'm still sniffling and sneezing, but much less than I ever have. Everything's looking brighter today. © 2013 Stephen Yuen

The neighborhood is taking a tern for the better.
