The site was down for 24 hours since Sunday. As an apology - an extra post taken from Thoreau's "blog" on this day 149 years ago.
The Springometer
Thoreau's Journal: 25-Feb-1859
Measure your health by your sympathy with morning and spring. If there is no response in you to the awakening of nature,—if the prospect of an early morning walk does not banish sleep, if the warble of the first bluebird does not thrill you,—know that the morning and the spring of your life are past. Thus may you feel your pulse.
