The official First Day of Spring around our house is the day we take the hot tub out of hibernation. It cruises all winter in economy mode just to keep it from freezing solid and occasionally we top it off and run the pumps for a minute.
Today we drained it, cleaned it and filled it. Hot tub tomorrow!
The other part of the ritual is watching the lawn re-appear from the winter long thick blanket of snow. Soon we’ll be calling the lawn guy to kick-start the sprinkler system and I’ll be hauling the lawnmower down to Tom at Ace Hardware for service.
We’ve survived another winter…
