Spring flow­ers are pop­ping up all over the His­toric District

Spring is in the air, although it may not feel that way these past few days. Don’t let the chilly weath­er fool you, Gov­er­nors Island is ready for the sea­son to begin! Flow­ers are pop­ping up all over the Island, mak­ing it come back to life, just in time for the 2011 pub­lic season.  There are many tell tale signs that spring is here. One of them is com­mon to most peo­ple, and prob­a­bly most of our read­ers — Tulips! There are tulips pop­ping up all over the island in var­i­ous spots. A sign that spring is in the air for all of us out here is.….Geese! Who would have guessed it, but when the geese are vis­it­ing us here on the Island, we know sum­mer and the pub­lic access sea­son is just around the cor­ner.
