Happy April! The fourth month of the year lived up to its moist reputation with a couple of gray, wet days. But the air is getting warmer and the cherry blossoms are out, so you’ve got to take the good with the bad, I guess. If you’re willing to brave the unpredictable weather, there’s a lot going on in the next few days to keep you busy.
