I am glad that New Year’s Day is over, and not only because of the University of Cincinnati’s loss to Virginia Tech in last night’s Orange Bowl. I suppose that the moral of that story is, If your sports team (professional or otherwise) is based in Cincinnati, do not look to it to provide you happiness.
Though with the current date set to early January, when one might think is the most depressing time of the year, except for February of courses, there are always things to look forward to. I am thinking in particular that in about three weeks, the yearly spring bird migration begins. It won’t hit Cincinnati at that time, but way down in Central America, the birds will be packing up and getting ready to move.
