Leading sounds of spring Are now preceding the season. Scattered platoons of yardmen clunk aluminum ladders that thunk debris littered roof gutters, bang a size range of galvanized nails into an exterior catalogue of materials needing attentive appending.

And the first nice day Harleys rumble distantly along the gorge road below.
