Spring fever

Tin, Loca and I went to the park and there was this young couple making out, nay, getting it on, right in the midst of the kids and ducks. Gadzooks! Just yesterday, two dogs were almost going at it while we were watching the Mardi Gras Indians and I overheard a woman with a French accent say, “My, even the dogs are flirting.”

Spring has sprung and I for one can attest to the fact that there is a certain slant of light, and a certain warmth in the air, and a general feeling of hoorah going on in New Orleans.

Tin ran up and down the path in City Park with his arms straight up in the air – he almost seemed to be about to break out into song “I have a song in my heart!” – we ran straight over to the lagoon where seagulls were dotting the sky, ducks were flying across to meet each other, and geese were gliding by. We sat down on the banks on the cool clover grass to watch the aviary show.
