As I exited from the Teddy Roosevelt Bridge, bound for Constitution, I had the most glorious view over the massed cars waiting for the light. The stark black tree trunks and branches against the seafoam green baby leaves is the most beautiful thing I’ve seen in a long time. The return of real Spring, and with it the sunshine that my body just craves, is the most relieving thing to a sufferer of seasonal depression. So, despite being late, tired, stuck in traffic and sneezing like it’s my job, the return of high-contrast Spring to the DC area is most definitely welcome.
