The "onions" comment was a joke.

Madison, Wisconsin, USA

hasn't the snow and slush just barely done melting up there?

Not yet. There's still residual snow around. But as I write, the radio
says the temp is 57 degrees F, and the forecast is for 70 this
afternoon. Not many more days, and the snow will be gone.
