Pull One Over On Harvard

You probably have noticed that due to the unseasonably warm weather, plants and flowers have concluded that spring is here, despite what the calendar says. On the one hand, this is a foreboding sign of possibly cataclysmic climate change. On the other, it’s a perfect chance to pull one over on Harvard University.

See, Harvard owns Dumbarton Oaks. And admission to the gardens is free during the winter. But on March 15th, which is almost always right as the spring fireworks kick off, the gardens start charging admissions. So in normal times, you have to pony up to get to see sights like these:

But with spring kicking off a month early, you can get all of this gratis! Suck it Harvard!

Even with this crazy early spring, the magnificent wisteria still will probably not bloom until after March 15. So at some point we’ll have to come crawling back, cash in hand. But for now, enjoy the free show!
