One good thing resulting from Saturday's strong winds in Greensboro was the calm, crisp day yesterday. The above photo was taken at Lake Higgins, Sunday afternoon. As you can see, the water was calm. People were out canoeing. The sky and the water were an intense blue and the air quality rating was in the green (good). Now is such a good time to hike along the our lakes; visibility is high since leaves have not come out yet. Also, ferns are starting to unfurl. There is so much to see on the city trails. Today is expected to be in the low 70, also reasonable for hiking. If you do head to the lakes today, while the trails are open, Lake Higgins is closed. You can't go out on the water or fish until tomorrow.
The moon will be full on Thursday. Since Easter is the first Sunday after the full moon that occurs on or after the spring equinox,* Easter is this Sunday. This is a great week to reflect on rebirth, in nature as well as spiritually. Spring is such a lovely time of year in Greensboro; many say it is the prettiest. Now would be the perfect time to go for nature walks, or walks around one of our neighborhoods, to document all of the signs of rebirth that are happening before our eyes. Whatever you decide to do this week, we hope you have a great one!
Happy Monday!
