Mud season has started. If you don't live in a place like Vermont, you may not know about mud season.
This is mud season. One year the mud on the Crossroads literally pulled the tire on my car off of the rim. Wikipedia says that it is caused when the frost on the top of the road has thawed, but the frost underneath is still frozen so that the water can't percolate down, hence the mud. It also said that in Russia, mud season is called rasputitsa.
This blog actually started this time of the year many years ago because of mud season. I was thinking about the seasons of the year, and the conventional wisdom that there are four seasons. I knew there were more than that around here; mud season, foliage season, stick season. I decided to try and count them...still counting.
