A new season is always exciting to me. I’ve seen the arrival of robins and a few daffodils, but recent snow showers are delaying more signs of Spring. The photo is of the Erie Canal with snow topping what little water is there — it’s drained every winter and will open for “traffic in May.” I so look forward to Spring beauty and more opportunities to work in my garden. Enjoy! JNC
