More Signs of Spring

More and more, the city of New Orleans is entering into Spring.

Sign: Today, crews from the city were mowing the grass on the St. Charles neutral ground (hey, y'all up North -- are you mowing your lawns yet?).

Sign: On the Jefferson Avenue neutral ground, and in front yard gardens all over Uptown and the Garden District, camellia bushes are in full, vivid bloom, their dark red and dark pink flowers vibrant against the glossy dark green foliage.

Sign: Baskets of bright geraniums on front porches on Dublin and Freret Streets.

It will be a warm Mardi Gras, and folks are more and more getting into the springtime Carnival season.
