We get to enjoy one more hour of daylight starting tonight!  Spring is around the corner and I am so ready for it!

The temperatures will be approaching 60 this week.  I have a feeling that many of the spring through fall seasonal businesses in the Lake George region will be ahead of schedule for opening day this year.  It doesn't look like we're going to have to wait for piles of snow to melt.

Enjoy the daylight, enjoy the warming temperatures, and remember, It's Always Time to Visit Lake George!

Every year, I look forward to that Special Sunday when we SPRING ahead and move the clocks forward one hour.  That special Sunday is March 11th this year - we'll give up one hour of sleep for an additional hour of daylight!
