Happy Spring?

Happy Spring?
Happy Spring?

By Kayla Thomason-

Today is the first day of spring, but with below normal temperatures still in the forecast, it doesn't feel very spring-like. People were asked what they plan to do when spring weather finally gets here and when do they think the snow will leave.

"I will be in Florida fishing in soft water," Dave Valentine said. He also said that the snow will go away "hopefully before May."

Some people are enjoying all the winter activities.

"Well I'm one of the few people that doesn't want spring to get here I'm enjoying this winter," Annette Dalka said. "People are thinking I'm crazy but I'm having a fun time with it. I've been out skiing a lot more than a lot of years this winter. It has been great but when it does eventually come I like my biking and kayaking and being outside." She thinks the snow will be gone by May.

Others know that with the melting snow comes large puddles that take over the yard.

"[I will] bail out because I'm going to have tons of water in my yard," Terry Wolf said. She thinks the snow will finally melt by July.

Some people are ready to take on spring cleaning.

"[I will] clean the yard, it looks very bad, and take a road trip as soon as I see the trees budding, go up to Bond Falls," Katheryn Alsteen said. She thinks the snow will be gone by May.

Others just want to dig in the dirt and watch their garden grow.

"Plant my garden," Jean Sneller said. "I certainly won't hold my breath but I'm hoping when spring comes [this] week that things will change and it will start to warm up."
