Spring Report
The sun rose at 6.48 a.m. and sets at 6.58 p.m. giving us 12 hours of daylight to work and play!
Spring and in turn summer can't come soon enough, back yards and barbacues, the beach and surf and the whole excitement of cobble filled streets buzzing with Newporter fans.
A chilly and rather muddy start to the spring season will not hinder local construction crews at Queen Anne Square for completing a $3.5 million renovation for the Doris Duke Memorial Fundation by Memorial Day weekend.
There is life again on Bowen's and Bannister's wharfes where a few new additions are staking their claims to the city's summer gold rush.
There were even a few recreational boaters on the water this week coming in from Castle Hill, never too early for hardened sailors to cast their thoughts to boating season.

There are willow pussies
Clad in furry goods
And a robin singing
in the maple woods
There's a springing crocus
And a budding larch,
Who'd ever think the Springtime
Came along in March
