Do you feel it? You know you do. We can see the grass again and the trees are showing the expectation of what can only be good things to come! If you are one that is saddened by Frosty saying goodbye, you have my condolences. Rest assured, he will be back next year. He promised! Until then, I hope you will all enjoy the new life that is about to display its beauty throughout our fair city with new sights, sounds and the smells of Spring. (Yes, even the burning weeds!) Make this a time of renewal for yourself and think of how your stories can come to life for your listeners. After the cold always comes the warmth of sharing your talents with others. Enjoy your Spring. You deserve it!
