If winter comes, can spring be far behind? Percy Bysshe Shelley, English poet

Winter has been here for a while, although we had a thaw this week. There have been several small nuisance snowfalls, but no blizzards this year, yet. There is a good sign that the warm weather is coming with the opening of spring training camps in Florida and Arizona this week. The Mets and Yankees have spent big bucks this winter to improve their teams which did not make the post season last year. More to come.
