We finally made it to March. What happened to our spring weather?! I think everyone's confused. The kids were riding bikes, people went for walks without the big coats and boots, even Caesar and Sarah are confused. Now, Sarah wanders around the house with her tennis ball in her mouth and looks sadly out the window. Caesar sits on the deck in the snow looking for spring.

Now that winter has come back, it's a nice time to borrow some books from the libraries and snuggle up on the couch to share a story. Have a nice cup of hot tea or cocoa on the table right next to you and enjoy the time you have together. Click here for our list.

There are free GED classes at the First Reformed Church on Tuesdays and Fridays from 9-12 and at the Sodus Elementary School on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6:30-9:30 p.m. For more information, call 800.527.1765. It's never to late to get your GED!

Whether the weather feels like spring or not, Easter is just around the corner. Don't forget Diane Phillips and her great Fabric Crocheted baskets. There is a sign up sheet at the L.W.Emporium in CaesarOntario. The Emporium is open from l0-5, Tuesday through Sunday. Classes are free, you pay the cost of the materials.

Thanks to everyone who has kept in touch and hopefully I will be hearing from more of you. If you have an event coming up please let me know. Do you have a birthday coming up or know of anyone who does? Write to me at

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Have a great week.
