Who's ready for Spring? Yeah, we are too!
But if Pennsylvania's favorite furry weatherman Punxsutawney Phil is to be believed, we have a few weeks to go before the warmer temperatures and the longer days are upon us.
There are several items on the events calendar over the next couple of weeks worthy of your consideration, however, including the annual Seaside Boat Show in Ocean City next weekend.
That's always a popular off-season event in Maryland's favorite coastal resort, so we're looking forward to that. But first, we have things to tell you about for the weekend of February 10-12 at and near the Delaware beaches.
If you haven't heard, the Philadelphia Eagles are playing in the Super Bowl this Sunday. While the game is out in Arizona, you can cheer on "The Birds" right here in Delaware this Saturday at a fun event scheduled for the Delaware Children's Museum.
Learn more about this and a handful of other events and activities via this week's "Weekender Blog," brought to you each week by the real estate professionals at the Oldfather Group of Compass RE.
Let's get right to it, shall we?
