Valentine's Day

I remember one year when we found crocuses in bloom on Valentine's Day on the sunny side of our house. This year, we can only guess at what is going on under the lingering snow.

Regarding Valentine's Day, it seems the city could use a reminder for residents to "love one another" across the four wards, in City Hall and everywhere else. Civility has taken a hit in recent months, but it is never too late to resolve to be kind to each other. Incivility begets callousness and that may beget disregard or worse in our dealings and speech.

The City Council meeting happens to fall on Valentine's Day this year. I have my hopes up that we will hear nice things from each other.
