I said in an earlier blog that I recognize the seasons by the Meteorological beginnings and ends. HOWEVER, Monday is the official first day of Spring! The Vernal Equinox takes place Monday afternoon at 5:24. Since we haven't really had a winter this year, let's hope we don't make up for that here in early Spring!
Spring is one of my favorite times of year. Primarily because it is getting lighter out and STAYING light longer/later in the day and getting warmer too. The way I look at it is that we start getting warm days and we are still on the upward climb to the warmest part of the year, rather than the downward slide into bitter cold.
Enjoy! Happy Spring!
