Spring time, and all that comes with it.

On Sunday, when my family was taking a walk, we went to go see some swans that live in captivity near by. We noticed that they were not swimming in their pond, which is their normal activity, but they were hiding behind a tree. We walked to the other side of the fence to see what they were doing. My family and I were surprised to see that they had a large nest with four eggs in it, and we were just in time to see one of the parents them over. Since that day, my mom decided to walk there every day to see when the swans would hatch. That is going to be a while.
Anyways, as spring has rolled around I started to have mild allergies. I really don't like them, especially because they make my eyes water. Many times have I gone with my family to one of our elderly neighbors house and been asked why I had been crying, when really I had just been having an allergic reaction to pollen floating through the air.
That (the pollen, not the elderly) is a reason that I do not like to go outside in the spring, and prefer to read and play civilization 5 or minecraft. The rain and clouds also make me feel lethargic, and makes me want to sit somewhere warm and read. My latest reading project has been to get through "The Lost City of Z", an book about the race to explore the amazon, and one explorer in particular, Col. Fawcett. It is a good book, yet can be a little dull at times.
