Well, last weekend the weather was bright but on the cold side. It rained a lot on Monday, though that still was better than the seven inches of snow that fell in Boston. Winter is having a hard time leaving us this year. The flowers are budding out most everywhere and spring began on Wednesday, but someone forgot to tell Mother Nature as it is projected to be on the cold side for the remainder of the month.

Well the month of March came in like a lion, no doubt about it. On Monday, there was about three inches of snow followed by about an inch of sleet making it a heavy, crusty snow to remove from driveways and paths. It snowed just enough Tuesday night to lightly cover the walkways you had shoveled during the daylight.

Last Sunday we were slammed again by another coastal snowstorm. The SSA cancelled boats on Sunday and Monday and the Congregational Church was forced to cancel worship services for the second week in a row. The annual church meeting was postponed until Sunday. This is the first time in my memory that church was postponed for two consecutive weeks!

Last weekend was cold and it snowed on Saturday. It is mighty quiet around town; a lot of people have been or are leaving for a winter vacation but don’t you think that finding a deer asleep in your neighbor’s backyard is something a bit unusual?
