I'll drive around with the windows down in the rain just to smell it. <BR/><BR/>Hey, it's cheaper than one of those spa treatments, right?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29204932.post-7314988976020494262007-06-05T05:51:00.000-06:002007-06-05T05:51:00.000-06:00Lonnie, you have to try the bare feet!Lill, I'll h...Lonnie, you have to try the bare feet!<BR/><BR/>Lill, I'll have to try that incense thing.

My daughter and I have been revelling in these smells as a change from the raw, exposed soil smell of mud season. These smells are greener and fresher and come from things that are growing and flowering. The mud season smell speaks of things being buried and what we have to do to get the ground ready to grow things. It's a nice change from the almost propane smell of snow in winter, but mud season smells don't have the good memories attached to them like spring smells do. Thanks for reminding me about how much a part of memory smells are. I guess that's why I usually have incense burning when I'm blogging.<BR/><BR/>Shine On,<BR/>LillAdminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05416333739132261312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29204932.post-62217231857714271102007-06-04T11:04:00.000-06:002007-06-04T11:04:00.000-06:00Our lawn needs mowing too, and hubby is seriously ...Our lawn needs mowing too, and hubby is seriously down in his back, sigh, so looks like I'll be hauling out the mower as well.
