Signs of Spring

The Big Picture blog from The Boston Globe has a lovely roundup of blossoming flowers and (better yet) images of the way people all over the world celebrate the arrival of spring. Shown here is a party in Afghanistan, where the equinox is celebrated as the beginning of the new year. Link -via the Presurfer

    I never understood why the middle of winter was the beginning of our year. Cool pictures too.

    Nickolas,

    I'm sure the Romans had their reason; unfortunately that reason is way outdated by now. I should celebrate spring by taking off my snow tires.
