Today I sat out on my deck with a big mug of coffee, and strummed a couple quiet songs on my guitar.  It was sunny and gorgeous and warm, birds were singing, dogs were barking to be let out -- but I didn't let them out -- because they annoy me.   Instead, I enjoyed some privacy with only the songbirds for company.  We even decided to perform a song together.  Like to hear it?  Here it goes, it goes like this...  
 ODE TO SPRING(recorded with my phone - forgive the sound quality) There's no video, just a lame, Spring-time selfie.  Sorry.  If you want, you can make fun of the single gray hair that popped out when I pushed my glasses up on top of my head.
