If springing your clocks forward this past weekend wasn’t enough of a sign that spring is on its way, try driving out East End Road where spring melt run off by East Hill will have you running to the car wash or at least to the store to load up on more windshield washer fluid. And while there’s still plenty of snow out East for skiing and snowshoeing, in town trails are now a patchwork of brown and white. And, if you missed it as an insert in last week’s paper, the Shorebird Festival program is out! How many more signs of spring do you need?
