Here we are March and it did not come in like a lion. In fact it has been warm but a little breezy. How can we complain when it is being said we are having one of the warmest winters.
It is the middle of February and the weathermen keep reminding us that last year at this time we were in a deep freeze and we had lots of snow, and our fear was that we may never see the ground until May.
