Signs of Spring...in mid Feburary

IT has been such a mild winter that the ornamental kale put in for temporary looks all over Murray Hill is  blooming away...

Likewise, tulip shoots in median strip of Park Avenue are sprouting up very early this year.

Little touch of real winter ( a real possibility yet) would whammy everything...,however, Park Avenue Association that takes care of the median strips would just replace them with other flowers...funny how they have so much money for things like this in the middle of a recession. But that's Manhattan for you.
