Truth be told, there’s no reason for those of us in the Albany area to complain about this winter. It hasn’t been that bad (Boston and New York have been hit far worse), and it’s winter in the Northeast – get over it or get out. But I have to admit that it has gone on long enough. This is the point where there are bound to be a few more snowstorms (we often get snow into April here) but from this moment forward it does make one a bit crazy. So, for this first day of spring, let’s channel happy thoughts of sunshine and warmth, and ward off the efforts of a winter that only wants to linger.
Above, the dream. Below, the reality.
