As our first day spring gets underway, we have been blessed by seasonable weather and sunny skies. Going forward it is only going to get nicer, especially as we head into the spring time. In two weeks, temperatures in the mid-fifties will be the normal, and low temperatures below freezing with occasional. Sunsets around 7:30 in about 2 1/2 weeks. Not too bad.
