Around the Neighborhood

Spring has arrived. In this part of the world, that means we could have snow that hasn't been forecasted by the TV meteorologists; or if the wind is coming in from the northwest across cold Lake Erie, it could be 45F or 74F, depending on your distance from the lake.

This was mid-afternoon one day last week, looking west out the window:

The pear trees along the street are flowering:

And the tulips have bloomed on the Mall:

Stacey's favorite sculpture in the area is located at the War Memorial Fountain on the Mall, Peace Arising from the Flames of War:

And on my way back home, the dogs stopped to see their friend, one of the uniformed doormen, at the Renaissance Hotel, and I caught this shot of the Terminal Tower reflected in the windows of the building at 55 Public Square:
