And every flower that grows upon the earth
-Noah and the Whale
Winter has been champion since, oh, I don't know, since October. When will she just leave the limelight and give spring a chance?
This morning Beijing found herself layered in nature's white garments. Fluffy white snow transformed the ordinarily drab buildings, cars, and sidewalks into a gleaming landscape. Ok, I admit, I was just as awed as everyone else. Yes, it was pretty. Yes, this snow was ideal for snowman making. But really! It is spring! March 20. That means spring, spring, spring!
Winter is a stubborn lady. She just will not go away.
