Okay, we seem to see this every March—we think spring is here, we get all excited and then we endure a couple more months of coldish, rainy weather. We’ll see what happens this year. If you’re a fan of the heat (what we have of it), we’re certainly headed in the right direction. Flowers are blooming and leaves are sprouting. Every day, we get a bit more sunlight. That means baseball is coming, whether Little League or the pros—perhaps it’s time to think about bundling up and taking a look at the newly reconstituted Giants. “Our life is March weather, savage and serene in one hour.” —Ralph Waldo Emerson welcome back
