Marvin Pincus is not the kind of guy to let spring slip through his fingers. Oh, when he was a young man, sure. But now, with the coming of spring to the world and autumn to his life, he’ll take every chance that comes along to grab life by both hands and spur it into a run.

From the Extension Agent’s Desk - Enjoying Agriculture
This is always my favorite time of the year. My cows are about done calving and the grass is getting greener. The weather is getting warmer but not unbearably hot. The recent moisture also helps me feel rejuvenated and optimistic. As I write this, it’s a pretty spring day and I wish I could find something to do outside. It’s also that time of the year where those working in agriculture go from 0-90 mph until the fall.
