Cranston Patch readers — you folks help me all the time, sending me news tips, photos, hints, feedback. We're in this together, finding lost dogs, tracking down armed robbers, and spreading news about events, fundraisers and people who do special deeds.
Today, I have an assignment for you. Go outside on this perfect day and take a picture. It could be your garden in various stages of bloom, your immaculate (or overgrown) lawn, the pool up and running now that the cover is finally off. Maybe you want to show off your latest spring outfit? That photo of you and your friends getting froyo you'll take today during your lunch break? A bunch of construction workers having their lunch break outside? I know many of you will be taking a photo like this today, so why not upload it here, to this article, by clicking the "Upload Photos and Videos" button? Do me the favor.
HINT: for iPhone or photos taken on a smartphone, just e-mail yourself the pic as an attachment so you can upload it when you get home or back to the office. If your boss gives you trouble, have them call me and I'll take the heat.
I got us all started with this pic of early morning clouds scrolling over the just-risen sun. I think this photo represents the day ahead: according to the National Weather Service, Cranston will see a high of 80 degrees with sun all day.
