And it was all Yellow....

Well, spring has sprung here in Georgia. It's fairly easy to tell. When you let your white dog outside and she comes back in a yellow dog.... you know spring is here.

The pollen counts are almost 4000 today. It might as well be measured in inches. Hopefully it will rain this evening and wash a good amount of it away. Then we'll have little rivers of gold along the streets.

Pollen is like airborne sugar sand. It gets in your eyes, your ears, your mouth. It tastes bitter and gritty. I'd like to keep the kids inside all day just to avoid the stuff, but that wouldn't be developmentally appropriate for them, so I brave the pollen anyway. Oh the sacrifices.
