Optimist

The weather this week is supposed to stay in the teens or below.  I think we have the eternal optimist pictured here.  At least the sun is shining and there is no snow predicted for a couple of days.  Maybe these people will get an opportunity soon to enjoy the umbrella and bbq. 

We have had a very snowy and cold winter here in the Northeast and I think everyone is yearning for an early spring.  Yesterday the temps were in the 30s and the park in Saratoga Springs was mobbed with people - skiing, snow shoeing and walking.  The sun was shining and I, for one, was anxious to enjoy the bit of respite from the cold.

I am optimistic that spring will be here soon.
