A PERFECT stretch of weather this past week extends into the
foreseeable future! Daffodils are up and hiking abounds. Looking ahead, the
Wildquack Duck Festival is on the horizon for its annual Memorial Day return! (http://www.jacksonnh.com/event/119/Wildquack-Duck-River-Festival)

a favorite for more than 20 years. Families, friends, singles, writers,

3,500 yellow rubber ducks make their way down the Wildcat River to the finish

the ducks pass!
