Crackle of birch bark in the wood stove.
The days are getting lighter, but there's a lot of winter left. I've always thought that the first sign of spring was the frost heaves which appear to rise up like mushrooms on Rte 133 some time in February. I'm seeing some earlier signs of spring this year, however. We have a new young man from Ira who is handling the sugaring on our property this year. He has already been very busy in the past few weeks setting up his lines for spring. He is leaving lots of track marks in the snow along the fence lines in the back.
