SPRING IS COMING

Spring is Coming.   It may not look like it yet, but Spring is coming to Rob Roy. But, as the month starts, there is still the layer of snow on the ground. As the month goes on, the days will warm and we can see the beginning of the trees budding out. Be careful, there are still icy and slippery spots on both the walks and streets. Drivers please slow down, front and four wheel drive let you speed through snow and ice, but they don't help stopping.
