Spring in Chicago

It was in the 30s when I got up this morning, and there was snow on the ground, which has since melted, probably because it's raining. And windy. Really windy.

And, after the City worked on the sewers on my corner for six months last year, the street outside the front door is, once again, a small lake -- water from one side to the other. Probably because no one ever bothers to clean the dead leaves off the storm drains.
