Changing seasons: Spring, summer, winter? Which is it? You certainly can't tell by the temperature. However, it is definitely spring when you pass all the ball fields all over the county and you see all the children practicing. Regardless of the weather, they are earnest about keeping their schedules getting ready for the season which began this week.
