The early April snow on Monday does not seem to discourage these winter aconite in a Weybridge garden. Who remembers the snowfall a few days before the April 8 solar eclipse two years ago? Four days later we were all outside, no coats, staring up at the moon dancing across the face of the sun.

The Mt. Abraham playing fields have been busy as the Eagle spring sports teams shape up and tune up for competitions. Just outside the Bristol school building last week, a boys’ lacrosse goalie faces a barrage of shots, which he stops methodically. Eagle boys’ lacrosse opens play with a home game against Burlington on Friday, April 17, at 4:30 p.m.

Snow rangers
Camila Nulsen (age 9), left, and Natalia Nulsen (age 5) of East Middlebury took advantage of a few fresh inches of snow that fell at the Middlebury Snowbowl early this week by hiking to the top of the Sheehan lift and snowboarding down. Their dad, Dave, said they were pretty much floating on the snow the whole time and loved it.
