Signs of spring start to show in Franklin County
As “they” say, if you don’t like the weather in Alabama, just wait and it’ll change, often the same day, perhaps within just a few minutes or hours. Over the last week or so, I’ve experienced a mix of spring-like weather, along with markedly colder temperatures. Even the colder temperatures often aren’t so bad as long as it’s not windy.
Harbingers of spring are beginning to make themselves seen. I noticed two robins outside the office recently, happily hopping about. A few minutes later, I saw a pair of red birds flying quickly across the road as I was driving. While traveling elsewhere in Franklin County, it was, for the most part, simply pleasant. Certainly not hot, but not cold – essentially a springlike day.
That’s my kind of weather, and I hope we have plenty more of it before the heat of summer arrives and sets up camp. I’m eagerly awaiting more flowers to begin blooming so we can see another beautiful Franklin County spring. What are the springtime favorites you’re looking forward to seeing soon?
