I don't know about you but I have really been enjoying the mild weather that Berkshire County has been receiving particularly post March 14/15 snowstorm. Due to the mild temperatures, the snow has been melting at a pretty rapid rate which reminds me that I need to go outside and haul off that big branch eyesore from my front yard that fell from one of my trees during the storm. And, I need to get my fence fixed as it blew down from high winds and heavy snow. You gotta love Berkshire weather.
