SPRING IS ON THE WAY

One can sense that spring is on the way. Although we are still in the first few days of February, one can sense that the grip of winter (which in Chicago wasn't really too 'grippy' this year) is loosening.  Early this morning, the temperatures were approaching 50°F under cloudy rain-threatening skies. More importantly, one feels the approaching spring when one is outdoors in the late afternoon. Sunset these days a quarter past five.  The surest sign of an oncoming spring is just one week away. NFL Football just had their champions Super Bowl game last Sunday, but Major League Baseball teams will be welcoming their teams to Spring Training Camps in Florida and Arizona in about a week. Spring is definitely on the way.

As part of my ten mile hike yesterday, I walked along the Jimmy Thomas Nature Trail along the North Branch Chicago River. This trail is not much more than a few hundred feet long. It was originally part of a beautification project near the Lathrop Homes in Chicago.
