The Midwest is Bursting with Spring Green

Cincinnati is vibrantly green! The fields, lawns and roadside forests are simply bursting from plentiful spring rain and sunshine. The trees are sort of--well--puffy with their large, supple leaves crowding each other on their branches. And the blades of grass push upwards like there's a race to the sky. Oh, and the birds are literally shouting across the neighborhood for attention. This is a big contrast to the sidewalks, concrete and bricks of New York City. A very nice contrast.
