It's a unique time in the Midwest right now... Your friends in warmer states are enjoying backyard barbecues, playing with the dogs and kids in the yard, and the fresh smell of a new bag of grass seed. The staples of Spring. Us in the Midwest? We're once again reaching out for our heaviest coats as we prepare for 'third winter' - the winter after mud season but right before 'real spring'. It's okay friends - grit your teeth, pretend to be happy for that one friend in North Carolina where its 72 and sunny, and patiently wait for winter to end. We promise it'll be over by... June.
