Parks look like beaches even if the dresses do not remind of bathing-suits. They spell spring and sun anyway. Snow plays tricks with motorists - sometimes in the morning it is impossible to find the cars parked by Moscow houses. Spring means brighter colors everywhere, and March started showing them indoors and in the streets. Street vendors are also becoming more active and numerous.
Warmer days mean more customers.
March plays practical jokes with them, and umbrellas that are supposed to protect from the heat of summer sun have to keep the snow away from the products - and salespersons. Construction work often stops for the cold season. Of course, not every construction site will see activities restored even when snow disappears this spring. Some companies and their clients have lost their money and will not continue expensive restoration of old houses. But there is always hope.
