The rain is pounding down.  We need a good soaking in order to get Spring started.  A male swan is the only bird on the pond.  His mate is huddled next to the boardwalk on a nest of sticks and grass.

We need to find other materials for our roads, sidewalks and other paving.  It would be great if they were porous in order to reduce runoff.  Maybe the nanotechnologists will help with that.

What a boring post this is.  The muse must be cranky this morning since she refuses to make me a visit.
