Spring Cleaning

Who makes it spring cleaning. Do people hoard more during the winter? Is it because you can finally open your windows? I am so curious why spring cleaning? Anyway, it is a little refreshing to spend the day kicking your house's ass. It just feels good after. Then I always make plans to attack something else, but i never seem to make it past that one day. If you have motivation and like to help the keep our world clean (who is going to say no to that) here are a few outdoor clean-ups.
