HAPPY VALLEY PRIDE DAY, Mother’s Day Weekend to all of you out there in Happy Valley, at what has to be one of the most beautiful times of the year, given the sights of all the new budding trees, daffodils and blossoms set against the white-capped backdrop of still snowy Mount Washington.
It’s been cooler than most springs, so any doses of warm temperatures are much appreciated, with local North Conway weather observer Ed Bergeron going the limit on Friday as I wrote this with a top rating of 50 cents on WMWV 93.5-FM’s “Morning Weather Show” with Roy “the Skiing DJ” Prescott.
