4/07/12 EASTER HOLIDAY

Saturday, 8:30 AM.  40 degrees F, up from mid-thirties at dawn.  The wind is WSW, calm to very light.  The sky is clouding up and the barometer predicts rain,  but I doubt it as the humidity is only 60%.  There must be a really weak front moving in.
    The temperature has been more seasonal of late and that is, thankfully, slowing spring down somewhat.  I don’t think apple buds will be hurt even if we get a hard frost next week, but the cherries may get hit.  Right now I will predict daffodils in Bayfield will be blooming nicely by next weekend, and probably at their peak in two weeks from now.
WEAK FRONT MOVING IN

A LITTLE EXCITEMENT

DAFFODILS AND FORSYTHIA
    We had a little excitement yesterday afternoon when the rescue squad et al showed up with sirens wailing and lights flashing.  Turns out the seasonal rental house two doors north had a gas leak.  Evidently all was set right by our good volunteer firemen and ladies.
    The political rhetoric seems to have taken an Easter holiday, and that’s good
