Title: Yellow Dog Fever
Post by: Cedar Savage on March 28, 2013, 10:37:19 PM
Ever hear of Yellow Dog Fever? I first heard it from an old timer, its the lazy, lack of energy feeling, that you get on nice sunny days in the spring, when you've been working outside all winter...

Never heard of yellow dog fever, but there's an identical malady called spring fever. I think I'm developing symptoms.. ;D

Yea, the only thing anyone can do is to soak up as much springtime sun as possible, it will pass as the summer heat comes on, no worries, just part of the cycle,
