Please lets have a SPRING photo thread in GD to beat back the winter blues..

Good morning DU. I've been having the winter blues for a couple weeks now. Do you think that you could help me break this cycle by posting some SPRING related posts from the area that you live in? I live in Newburgh, so I will start the thread off with some pics of the Hudson Valley. Peace and low stress and thanks in advance for all those that participate.

But Pete was out on the corner of Route 9 & 9D protesting the wars almost every weekend.
Pete went to every city event in Beacon and performed at all of the waterfront fests.

Have a great weekend randome and pray for Spring. Peace and low stress.
