Dining & Entertainment !=? NM Guide ft is^?j ( ^ ! By Libby Demp Forrest f SPRINGTIME is just minutes away, officially due to arrive at 5:03 p.m. EST tomorrow- when the Vernal Equinox ' occurs. 'Vernal* means 'spring.* and 'equinox' means equal night*, thus on the first day of spring the sun moves so that day and night are equal in length all over the earth It's time to put on the old walking (or running) shoes and go out to celebrate the arrival of spring. Also on the calendar this week is Palm Sunday, a day of deep religious significance. It also marks that annual rediscovery of life at the seashore. A walk along a promenade celebrates that upbeat feeling that all's right with the world. WE ALWAYS enjoy the springtime and watching little things pop through the earth again. And then there is the sound of the peepers in the marshes that we love to listen to during our nightirrie walks.

During a later time, we took the babies for strolls during springtime afternoons and the sound of their sweet laughter still echoes within us This is a great week for enjoying a fresh new season with a freshly prepared meal at a favorite restaurant.
