Time Looks Over Its Shoulder At Us



For a decade now I have looked so forward to spring so I would be able to train horses in sunlight after work. Time will change in about 10 days and I will be able to do so again. This will also be the first spring in about a decade that I will not have Lido to help me train. Saturday there will be several bluegrass bands putting on a lengthy show in Lido's memory. The HOA Rescue fund is growing with donations honoring Lido. Sunday would be two months since he died. I say "would be" because he died on December 29 and there is no February 29.

But there will be another February 29. It will come back every four years, but Lido won't. Time marches on. Time cheats.
