In Your Face, Old Man Winter

This photograph shows winter’s feeble attempt at scaring us yesterday. Those pitiful flakes couldn’t even find purchase on the ground. Unfortunately, the photo also accurately reflects just how ugly Kansas City is in the four month stretch that ends in two weeks. When March arrives and the air smells of life and I’m listening to spring training reports on the radio, I might retrieve this picture, just so I can laugh again at our shared victory over nature.
