The first day of spring was yesterday, Monday, March 20, 2023, at 5:24 p.m. EDT. The vernal equinox marks the turning point when daylight begins to win out over darkness.
The flowers and trees are budding out. The Daffodils have been beautiful this year. The Red Buds are in full bloom. Here's to hoping a Spring frost does not damage the new buds.
It will be warmer this week. Enjoy!
