Spring in Rochester

According to the calendar it's Spring in Rochester. According to my thermometer, though, it's still a bit chilly to be rollicking in the sunshine.
None the less, as Spring rolls around and the Rochester weather warms, it's time to consider again the idea of venturing outside without a coat and enjoying all that Rochester has to offer.
What are your plans for this year? Do they involve taking in the lovely Highland Park? Checking on the Lilac Festival? Or maybe a stroll along Park Avenue? Maybe a community festival or two? Wine tasting in the Finger Lakes? Lunch in the courtyard at the Village Gate? Now you can eat outside at Salenas (who just reopened a new, larger and much nicer restaurant), California Rolling and Bodhi's Cafe. Maybe your idea of fun is a round of golf on one of our world-famous golf courses. A visit to the South Wedge for some Ice Cream or a stroll along the Genesee? Maybe a visit to our famous Public Market for some fresh vegetables.
I know for myself just the presence of some sunshine brightens my day. OS-Cubed has offices with huge windows that face the Memorial Art Gallery campus. You can see our view from our webcam here. The sunsets can be spectacular - if the sun sets far enough North to see it :) I love having the warm sun beating in on us as we work - it makes the whole day seem more positive and upbeat.
So now that spring has sprung - make a list. What about the Rochester area do you want to do this Spring, Summer and Fall? Share your list here - maybe someone else will get a great idea from it.
Celebrate Rochester, and revel in the Spring and Summer weather - before it gets dark and snowy again!
