One of the joys of warmer temps is spending time on a base lodge deck. (SKI NH/BLACK MOUNTAIN COURTESY PHOTO)

Get into a spring skiing state of mind. It’s upon us. Meteorological spring started March 1. That’s based on the Gregorian calendar. Astronomical spring or regular spring as we know it, is tied to the vernal equinox. That’s when the sun crosses the equator and is scheduled for March 19 this.

We’re into sunshine, rain, corn and mud, sunscreen and mashed potatoes, goggle tans and thirst-quenching beverages. Soon, it will be pond-side spectator viewing and mogul burns and turns.
