Welcome to Spring in Chicago

Today, March 20th, is the first day of spring. This seems fitting since the last three days have been sunny and warm. Flowers are even springing up and the grass is looking more green than brown. It could have been a beautiful spring weekend. But, in Chicago it's never that easy and the first sign of spring is never actually spring.
And so today, March 20th, there is snow on the ground and a chill in the air again.
Goodbye dreams of sitting on the greenspace and hello again boots.

Today, March 20th, I wish I was here...
