There is only one time every year when the grass on the farm is as vibrant-green as it is right now. When the sun warms the ground for a few days and the spring rains fall, the grass breaks dormancy and puts on a gorgeous chartreuse sheen the likes of which haven't been present in a year. It will spend perhaps a week, maybe two then will fade to a deeper, less brilliant hue, not to return for another year.

Spring has Sprung
What makes spring official?
The disappearance of snow? We really didn't have much this year.
The return of 50 degree temps? Those have been a dime a dozen this winter season.
Certainly the crocus bursting with color says spring's time has come!
