i remember when i was a kid we figured out that a bowl sled (yeah, some kid moved down from arkansas and actually owned a sled, which was really just an aluminum pan thing). Anway, we figured out that after they cut hay, the bristles on the coastal were strong enough to support that sled if it was pulled behind a mini-bike. kind of like tubing behind a boat. I broke a kid's arm pulling him at death defying speeds.
We did something similar in the city, on snowy/icy days we would grab the back of a UPS truck and slide down the road on our boots. We called it skitching
Skip to 30 seconds in
if you hit a drain, pot hole or high manhole cover you'll be limping for life
We did, and survived

Oh No! CQ your internet forum reputation is in question. How will you ever be able to leave your house? Will you lose your job? Do you think people in your town will look differently at you now? You're really behind the 8 ball now, hire a lawyer and get that shit cleaned up now!
I'm not sure I'll ever recover if I cannot gain the respect of a lonely dust covered Texas alcoholic

The only reason I was banned is because I have enough balls to speak fact and be a man. Yet, these are things you will never amount to be loser.

Bermuda, the whales migrate north and pass by for a snack. I've seen them from shore here.
Awesome. I forgot you lived in Bermuda. Should have remembered that. Glad to see the whale populations rebounding. Always considered the 200 year hunting of whales maybe the low point in human history. Majestic creatures.

I know it comes at different times depending on where you live. Besides the obvious trees, plants blooming, I'm guessing there is a sign (usually wildlife, maybe insects) that let you know that's it's close. Probably varies wildly. What sign do you watch for each year?
Classic one in the Northeast is American Robins picking worms out of the lawn.
P.S. I understand they're year round, but overwinter in flocks. I've never seen those flocks.

A sure sign of Spring coming here is the Canadian geese.
And the sap running through the trees.

When I was young the first day of trout season was the beginning of spring. Baseball practice would start soon after.
