Tom Chaney 156. April 27, 2008: Essay on Spring

Joyful Spring!
A fully ColumbiaMagazine.com endorsed essay, especially the part about asparagii and lawns, yard poisoning, & lawnmowering. Give us the old country churchyard look anytime. -EW

Also Aunt B makes wonderful pies there. if you didn't eat there you missed some great food . I love ColumbiaMagazine.com. It makes me feel like I am back home again. Thanks.
