Sunday, March 20th is the first official day of Spring!

I think it's safe to say we can all officially say goodbye to frost, freezing temps, heavy clothes and (best of all) snow! Go ahead, you can take off that enormous puffer jacket and toss those mittens in the closet until next year. With the sun shining, flowers blooming, and official start to the Spring season, we here at hMAG took some time out to appreciate Hoboken in spring. Here's what the team had to say:

1) What about Spring are you most looking forward to?

"Enjoying our new roof deck and eating lunch outside." - Simon Dabkowski, Web Director

"Riding my longboard to work then chillin' with the hMAG team on our deck... after work, hitting the park(s) with my kids." - Kevin Cale, Chief Creative Officer

"Getting together with friends & neighbors who've been hibernating all winter." - Sharon Henry, Editor

"I'm most looking forward to the earth coming alive again; flowers, sunshine, warmth. Especially the smell of fresh-cut grass." - Brittney Hanlon, Designer

"Outdoor seating." - Joe Mindak, Publisher

"Spring clothes, warm weather, and finally getting some sort of tan!" - Melissa Melms, Managing Director

"Not having to wear gloves, a scarf and a winter jacket every day on my walk to the PATH." - Kelly Rainey, Superstar Contributor
