« NOTES FROM THE VAGABOND JOURNAL VANDALIA, ILLINOIS, FEBRUARY 7, 2003 - (22) | Main | IVAN BURGESS'S ECHO ECHO »

March 01, 2005

from MORNING DRIVE JOURNAL:
MARCH 1, 1999

Sun and a little warmth

on Friday and the weekend have gotten rid of last week's snow. Winter's trash is clearly revealed once again.

It is a bright, blue day. There was a moon against paisley clouds in the western sky when I rose at 4:30 a.m. An orange wash in the eastern sky as the sun came up.

March is a spring month, we're told. That means the worst of winter is over, I guess. If what we've had for winter is as bad as it gets, it doesn't get bad at all.

No frost on the windshield. The morning is almost balmy - at least it's mild enough to confirm spring is coming. There is still ice on the pond, still a great sheet of ice down there.

A county snow plow comes through downtown Fairwater. The driver seems to know where he's going, but I know it's not snow he's after today.

A wash of clouds to the west and north. Geese cut the sky in small flocks. On a side road, a fishing shanty sits tilted where a tire on the trailer hauling it has blown or gone flat. Fishing shanties are coming off the lake, I guess. Sitting there on the side road, this one definitively marks the end of winter.
