SIGNS OF SPRING OUT-OF-KILTER

(02/24/2006)

We have usually posted a picture of the first yard sale as a harbinger of spring, so yesterday we snapped these guys along US 33-119 near the Calhoun-Roane line.

However, the salesmen said they've been doing business all winter, with the warm temperatures, every few days.

Even those early buds and blooms on bushes and trees are out-of-kilter.

So, we may have to come up with some new signs and signals as spring really does arrive.
