We’ve already spotted a blooming crocus flower. People were wearing shorts earlier this week. And we’re hoping to dust off our sandals soon. Don’t be fooled, though: Spring is coming, but you’re going to have to settle for winter a bit longer, as evidenced by last night’s rain and snow showers. (Hopefully, your morning commute didn’t resemble an Olympic ice dance competition.) While we wait for things to warm up, we can look at images like this and at least remember that Colorado looks darn pretty in the winter.
