The stores are starting to put out all of the items that are needed for our spring work and our summer fun in the sun. The patio furniture, garden supplies, lawn mowers, flip flops and pool accessories are lining the shelves just begging us, the consumers, to start digging in our wallets and dishing out the bucks on all of things that we have become famous for buying this time of the year.
My neighbors are getting anxious just waiting for this warm weather that we have been experiencing this winter, to get just a bit warmer and they can start getting their pool supplies in order and ready for all the water activities that having a backyard pool can bring to friends and family members. I’m so glad that I’m on good terms with both neighbors on both sides of my place and that I have an open invite to go over and enjoy a dip in either one of their pools, or a whole afternoon if I please to. They get to deal with all of the various pool supply issues while I just get to enjoy the feel of the nice clean water that they are so careful to get with all of the pool filters and pool chemicals that they have to buy each year.
While I in return turn them on to all the goodies that I grow in my wonderful vegetable garden in my back yard. So it works out very well for all concerned.
