Spring Equinox



Some thoughts about spring on its first day:

 

I love how it is often warm and rarely humid.

 

I love that bright, shimmering shade of green that new leaves give to old trees.

 

I love how wildflowers turn ordinary roadsides into vivid profusions of color and life.

 

I love going swimming with my daughter again.

 

I love sitting outside in the afternoon and drinking a margarita beneath a cloudless blue sky.

 

I love spring training baseball.

 

And finally, I am riveted by the most intense pursuit in all of sports:  the NHL playoffs.
