Like Matt we got a little rain last night and more for today. I do see more sanding in Matt's future though. Like the guys in the north of us we are cool here for the spring but not like that. Hope it warms up quick. Word of the DayTuesday, April 23, 2013 gander\ GAN-der \, noun; 1.Slang. a look: Take a gander at his new shoes. 2.the male of the goose. Compare goose (def. 2). Origin: Gander came to English from the Proto-Indo-European word for "goose" or perhaps another type of water bird. The first noun sense of gander , used as early as the year 1000, meant "a male goose," and later senses related metaphorically to the movement of a goose. While the verb form of gander meaning "to look" entered English in late 1600s, the noun form meaning "a look" didn't enter English until the early 1900s.
