AND SO IT IS SAID…
This winter has gotten off to such a warm start, it seems Mother Nature has
decided to give us a little sneak preview of the coming spring. Forsythia
bushes were blooming prematurely and dandelions scattered the supposedly
dormant grass while spring robins crowded around the bird feeders with
cardinals and black-capped chickadees. Even my Lenten Roses were in full,
glorious bloom on Christmas morning!
So while that may mean that the ski boots and sleds stay stored a while
longer than usual, that doesn't mean there isn't an arms-length long list of
fun things to do this winter season.
Foodies can explore all of the delightful options throughout the county. From
odd-shaped burgers to barbecue joints, to Cuban food or sushi served on a
conveyer belt, there is indeed something for every taste and preference.
A day spent wandering the many quaint downtowns of Frederick County,
exploring galleries, shops and museums, followed by a rousing night of
karaoke sounds like the perfect way to spend time while we're waiting for
Jack Frost to make his eventual appearance.
Frederick has everything visitors and residents want to help fill the new
year with food, fun, family and friends. So...embrace this unusual weather...
and explore Frederick!
