The sun is warming things up out there to more comfortable temperatures above 30, and allowing sidewalks to melt- including the walking path at Babbott Park which is kept open all winter long and plowed (time allowed based on DPW needs).

A bit of foresight, and snowy excitement, has extended seasonal decor popping up too!
