Here in northern california, the first subathers are appearing on campus and there is plenty of talk about spring ‘finally’ being here.

Somebody really should tell them that spring is finally here, because they just don’t seem to be getting it.

p.s. I have no intention of making this blogging space into a canadiana tribute. It just seems to work out that way.
