Mud Season in Maine


"Texting" in Maine sometimes means writing a message in the dirt on the back window of a car or truck. This time of year, in most of Maine, the snow banks wear a film of road dirt, but the snow in the mountains is still white and offers great spring skiing.

It's "Mud Season." The ground is oozy all day and at night it freezes. Close up of CrocusThe sharp westerly wind reminds us to keep our winter coats handy, and I think how hardy those dainty, little crocus must be to poke their faces out of the ground right now.

Taxes are due this month, it's too soon to start the garden, and I know how many workouts it will take before I dare to put on a pair of shorts or a bathing suit.


If you are feeling betwixt, between, and a bit scattered, it may just be the time of year. Try using a Maine Warmer to help you relax and rejuvenate. The warmth from a Cozy Sheep will help put a smile on your face and a little spring into your step. And if you feel like writing to us be sure to call, email, or leave a "Maine Text." We always love to hear from you. Or follow us on Facebook.
