Warren County Wanderings

Starting March 3, 2023 March Blowing In

“Winds of March, we welcome you, there is work for you to do. Work and play, and blow all day, blow the winter wind away.” – English proverb

A bit of wind is in the forecast for the next few days, and we can expect to be in for a month of changeable weather (in like a lion and all that). But we like this concept of blowing winter away!

We see signs of various establishments emerging from hibernation, once again offering live music; and there is still time to see The Ladykillers at Centenary Stage, concluding its run this weekend. And if you like a bit of St. Paddy’s Day revelry, events start kicking off next week already, so plan ahead!

Happy March, and Happy Wanderings!
