In like a lamb, out like a .......lamb?

An early spring followed a mild late winter, and we braced for the expected late freeze. But March has failed to live up to its normal weather pendulum. It comes to an end even more lamb-like than it began. And looking ahead into April it seems we'll just skip Dogwood Winter this year. The insects and ticks are already loving it. Perhaps with global warming we'll have to assign February the task formerly carried out by March.
