No clouds today, spring is near.

That's not Spring you smell. That's my two year old doing what he seems to do best! That's right, it's so strong the smell crosses States and even regions.

I'm not sure about where you are but spring is thoroughly buried under the snow and huge bankings here in the northeast.

Around 53°F here and no clouds. Usually we've got about 10"-40" of snow here and freezing temperatures for weeks, but this year I guess you got our weather

-12°C here tonight, and several feet of snow on the ground in some places, but, as my grandfather used to say, "Spring is just under the mattress!" (Don't know how that translates into German ).

You guys are so lucky to be living in the heat zone. Last couple days here was -28°C and the forecast for tonight is close to -33. If you take the dog for a walk and it craps somewhere? It's frozen solid as it hits the ground....I guess that's a bit easier for the cleanup on aisle 7

Yeah, when it's that cold my poor dog walks like a ballerina after about a minute, then after that she starts whining and limping. She won't tolerate boots -I tried.
She's got to make fast runs out and in, but as you say, the cleanup can be done with a golf club (sorry, neighbors ).

Winter's not done here either. Had two days of 50's and now back down to 30 degree highs. Snow showers tomorrow, and another snow storm projected for Sunday/Monday. Wonder when we'll see the grass around here.

I think he'd say to turn it over before the bed bugs do!

But at least every other Christmas when you're changing underwear.

10°C/~34°F, almost no clouds.

Sorry for that. Not.

Great photos. And I love the City. I was there about 20 years ago and never forgot the people and the food.
