Spring Training


It will be just about a month until Spring rolls into Indy,
but Saturday gave us a preview in the form of sunny skies
and temperatures in the seventies.


People took every advantage of the unexpected warmth
by coming downtown to see the sights, to shop, and  to enjoy 
the company of other people doing exactly the same.


Whether it was folks people watching, enjoying their lunch 
or an ice cream cone on the steps of the Circle,
people took the time to speak with others.
They chatted with visitors from outside the city
while lined up on their Harleys near
the Hilbert Circle Theatre.


Others spent time practicing 
their skateboard skills on the plaza 
of the Regions Bank, watched by 
commuters waiting for their buses 
just across the street.


It may have been a month until Spring 
rolls around, but the people of Indy used 
the day well. I guess it could be 
called Spring training.
