Another Sign of the Season

I was on my way to a much delayed dental check up earlier today when I came upon another sign of the changing seasons. A number of students were moving out the Ryerson University student residences.

Some of the students congregated in groups whose main purpose appeared to be to hug each other. Others were trying to balance the conflicting demands of moving their possessions out of their rooms while not been overly embarrassed by the parents who were there to help them move. There was even one brave lass whose approach to moving was to carry as much in her arms as she could and to pray that her forward momentum would carry her all the way down the street to her car.

It brought back memories of my own university days and it was as much a sign of spring's arrival as the open roof of the Skydome.
