Beautiful, Paul. It only got up to about +6C today, and it was overcast with a bitter wind. No matter, spring's in the air, and it sure beat the 3 inches of snow we got overnight last Wednesday. <g> Tomorrow, they're saying +12C, which is around 50F to 55F (?), with sun. Time for the cycling knickers. Gotta shave below the knees (a sure sign of spring <g>). Anyway, great shot. It warms my soul (and body) to know these things are happening. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
