It’s early March, and this past week the temperatures hit the 40 degree mark, which was very nice. Nothing stokes the Spring Fever more than “warmish” days. Even though it’s been a good winter in Siouxland this year, temps not below zero for days at a time as it has in the past, those early warm days makes one yearn for more. But Mother Nature decided Old Man Winter needed to visit the Midwest one more time. And one wonders if the little rodent, Punxsutawney Phil, made a bad prediction this year.

- Just when the temps start hitting the low 40’s and you get Spring Fever, Mother Nature and Old Man WInter brings you up short.
But the weather people say the temperatures should be hitting the high 40’s, maybe even 50 degrees by the end of this week. The nice part of this time of year is that the snow may not last long. Although I could think of better ways to get a cardio workout in during the day.
