Why would I ever invest in a gym membership, working my muscles on a machine that goes nowhere, when I could rake the back yard, and unearth spring?

Workin' up the dirt;

soakin' up the sun.

And the spring cleaning continues.
Isn't raking leaves a fall activity?
you may ask.

Can be.

But mulching properties of leaves aside,
it's way more fun to rake leaves on a warm,
sunny, spring afternoon
than a cold, windy, fall afternoon.

Spring is here.
