Do you feel that? That’s warmer weather. Yup, consistently getting warmer. Looks like Spring is upon us. I guess that groundhog was right. Along with all of the other critters who predicted an early Spring.
A quick check with the Arkansas Weather Blog that is run by Todd Yakoubian, looks like the warmer weather is here to stay.
Do you know what that means? We are getting closer to events like Toad Suck Daze. There are plenty of events between now and then.
We have another list of events out for the week of March 2. We have them below including The Red Curtain Theatre’s production of 101 Dalmations.
