Spring

Trying to predict the weather is a lot like spitting into the wind.

Up, down, round and round. That's Amarillo winter weather huh?

When owning a home it is really important to keep up with the maintenance. It is cheaper if you catch something early on. It also usually requires less work. You want to fix it right away before it turns into something major.

The most common bird in Texas is not the woodpecker, although that is in the top ten. In addition to being everywhere this spring, birds also hold a key to happiness. Until the droppings end up on the newly-washed car anyway.

For many parts of Texas you can tell someone to wait 5 minutes if they don't like the weather... and while that's true here... weather in the Panhandle presents its own unique addition to life up here.

The dreaded "spring forward" hits Sunday morning (3/15) at 2 AM.

While we have all been focused on staying safe from Covid-19, we can't forget that it is also severe weather season here in the Texas panhandle.

Thursday night, we move into spring. It officially begins at 10:49 p.m. local time.

There is something therapeutic of getting rid of things, packing away your winter clothes and welcoming in the new season!

Bluebonnets reign supreme in Texas every spring. At least, until it comes to what is actually in our gardens.
