If what we've had in this area the first few days of May has been spring weather, most folks hereabouts would set tle for a few more weeks of our- so-called winter weather of the past few months. The daylight hours have seen howling winds, cold rain, and the snow level on the moun tains brought down to below the 3,000-foot mark. And at night the thermometer read ing has dipped menacingly toward the freezing point. But in spite of discomfort and some inconvenience, nearly everyone is grateful to see the dry earth and woods get some much-needed moisture.
