The light changed ... it's Spring!

Every time it happens I'm surprised. Every couple of weeks or so I notice that the days are getting longer. But two days ago I noticed that the sunlight was different. It's hard to describe, but I noticed a change in the colors of the trees and houses and pavement. I'm guessing that it's related to the angle of the sunlight on the surfaces. It's fascinating that even though the orientation of the earth relative to the sun is changing continuously, one day I see a big change that feels like a jump, not a gradual difference.

It happens every Spring and every Autumn and I'm always surprised. One of life's little pleasantries.

P.S. I tried to post this on Feb 19th, but I hadn't switched to the new blogger (it's now longer an option; it's a requirement). So now it's Feb 27th and I'm trying again. But I have a feeling it's not going to work ... my login is different.

P.P.S. 28 Feb. I was right, ecto can't post to blogger. I even changed my entire Google accounts password and nada. This is crap!

P.P.P.S. 2 Mar. and I say "Uncle!" I'm going to post directly with the browser. These kinds of irritations and impediments to just getting something out there seems to come with the so called "Web 2.0" package. Now even simple things aren't always easy. We call this progress. George Orwell just shakes his head.
