Winter's Last Day

Old Man Winter has packed his bags and he's waiting to depart on a night train tomorrow.  Today's his last day.  Nobody cares about Old Man Winter and he's standing all alone there at the train station, shivering with his own fading memories of swirling snow, howling wind chills and deep freeze frights.

Old Man Winter gets his marching orders on this day every year.  Whether he likes it or not, he's gotta go because Spring's gonna kick him out in the dark night at 4:02 am tomorrow (Arizona Time).  The Equinox comes a little early this year and that's a good thing.

It seems so long ago that we stood 'round our Winter Solstice campfire December 21st wondering what the next three months would bring.  Bye, Bye Old Man Winter--Hello Happy Spring!
