Our trees are showing bits of color in pinks and yellows and daffodils are popping up everywhere. So we'll take advantage of these days by biking the greenways and hiking the trails, enjoying the last of the winter produce at the farmers' markets, and meeting friends for a quick bite on the patio of our favorite eatery . Of course, if the weather doesn't cooperate, there are still exciting things to do inside.
