		<description><![CDATA[Last night I watched the 7th and final episode of the HBO Miniseries &#8220;John Adams&#8221;.

Looking out my window this morning, my level of doubt rises.  Snow falling and on the ground.  In APRIL!!!  Doesn&#8217;t seem much warmer around here this spring, that&#8217;s for sure.
On the other hand, I can&#8217;t complain.  I love the look and feel of snow.  Since we don&#8217;t get it very [...]]]></description>
