#NieldsXVII Story Contest : Week 10

posted April 10, 2015

We got all excited for Spring when we wrote this week’s question. Then it went and got a little wintry on us again. Thanks to those who took part and we’ll be back Monday with a hopefully weather-appropriate new addition to the Story Contest.

Week 10 : Question: What makes you feel like Spring has truly arrived and what Nields song would you play to celebrate?

I know that spring has truly arrived when all the snow has melted and the robins have returned; both of which have already happened in my yard! The song that I play to celebrate the beginning of spring is “Glow In The Dark Plastic Angel,” because of the line about the first day of spring. I play it every year on the spring equinox. It’s one of my annual traditions. I also play “Ash Wednesday” and “Just Like Christopher Columbus” on their respective holidays as well!
