Weather 

The first full week of April was a confusing one for the weather. Muldoon saw a few mornings start off in the midthirties. After the cold starts the days warmed up nicely and were perfect spring time temps.

The wild flowers are starting to really take off and the roadsides are becoming very colorful. The spring time colors have really come out in the last few weeks with the trees greening up and drives are just beautiful.

With the trees greening up so has everything else, including anything sitting outside. Pollen has left a green coating on anything and everything.
