As winter transitions to spring, March brings both moments of reflection and celebration, like St. Patrick’s Day. As the weather shifts, there’s a sense of anticipation for the season ahead.
March invites us to spend more time outdoors watching mother nature awaken. The trees are budding, birds are chirping, and flowers are starting to bloom. Everything seems possible.
March 9 starts Daylight Saving Time, which begins at 2 a.m. Denver time. Set clocks ahead one hour. You’ll know the March worm moon has gotten enough to eat when it’s full.
