Looking Vernal out there

The biting winds may have ruffled the robin’s feathers and nipped at the daffodil shoots in the park, but the signs of the coming Vernal Equinox were apparent in Milford this week. For those of you who want to balance an egg on its end, and you can do that during the equinox, the sun will cross the equator and spring will officially arrive at 1:26 p.m. EST on Monday, March 20. The National Weather Service is promising a clear, if chilly, weekend which will carry over into the new season. (Photo by David Hulse)
