Spring comes in like a snowman

Hey, everybody, have you noticed it’s Spring in Ada—time to walk the baby in a stroller, take a ride in a convertible, install screens, plant seeds, play baseball, skateboard, mow, buy bug killer, uncover the pool, let the kids play at the park, wash windows. The Chamber of Commerce should have a stern talk with the weatherman about the three inches of snow that fell on the first day of Spring yesterday. Yes, it’s Spring, time to build a snowman...or in this case, paint one. (Monty Siekerman photo)
