The Spring of our discontent

With an average temperature of around 8 degrees this morning, the spring equinox would seem to have failed to produce any sort of spring like weather.  The next ten days are only somewhat more promising.  The situation is reminiscent of the Trump campaign; lots of extravagant promises and an abject failure to deliver on any of them.  It certainly looks like we will have snow on the ground at least until the first of April and possibly beyond.  Pastimes like gardening and golfing probably won't start on the NCR until at least mid-April.  In the meantime, there is always politics.
