Spring   

Yes … Springtime in New England is just so Awesome, this is the time of the year when we shake off our winters blue ans wen the sun shines brighter  and the warm sun starts to help the grass to grow and flowers to poke the heads up out of the cold winter ground 

Coming late and staying only briefly, spring in New England is often a disappointment.

The week or two of spring days in April, May and June are a delight, with cool temperatures in the evening and just the perfect degree of warmth during the day, in bright, clear sun.

But the delight of spring may be so brief that New England people  joke “Oh, spring…yeah, last year it was on a Tuesday.”

In the countryside the thaw brings “mud time,” the period between frost and spring planting.

Thus many country inns, resorts, and amusements close for a few weeks in April.
