#HappyFirstDayofSpring everybody! Although today in Upstate NY, it didn't feel like spring at all with all of the cold air & the snow that we've received all winter!! It felt like winter all over again! Tonight, I took a walk through Riverfront Park in Downtown Troy, NY and viewed the nice sunset after I was finished with work & attended my piano lesson! The park still looked nice even though it was still covered in snow!! Looking forward to warmer days & green grass to come to us this season!! Happy Spring! Spring ahead & focus on the beauty of what's to come soon! (Photos taken by Amy L.
