How does it look in our area?   Let's start by saying thank goodness that awful Winter is over! With December bringing us record breaking rain fall, then over a foot of snow which froze and then more rain on top of frozen snow, it was dismal and mucky.

Now that must come as a surprise to all those that went out on boats, including kayaks and canoes to g...
