6 Signs That Spring Is Almost Here [GALLERY]

Eight days to go (as of March 12th.) March 20th, the Spring Equinox begins at 5:37 a.m. And we really need spring more than ever this year.

It's been a year since we were hit full force with Covid-19, and it seems like the longest, slowest year ever. Plus the fact that winter has been rough on us after a few mild winters, we need something good to look forward to.

I'd like to put my snow shovels and snow blower in the shed and lock it up until next winter. And store away that winter coat, gloves and cap in the closet. With the warm temperatures we experienced this week, we now have a taste of what's to come.

For me, here are six signs I've experienced this week indicating that spring and warmer weather is just around the corner.
