If you were in downtown Waterville on Thursday afternoon, you might have seen or been offered a drink from this duo who deemed their travels #equineandwine  Their goal to pass out a little joy and refreshment as they noticed stress levels increasing.


Despite the snow in the forecast for Mother's Day weekend, the seasonal gauge in front of Morgan's Hardware show signs of plenty of backyard gardening, relaxation and warm weather ahead.

Hopefully all of the tulips and other blooms that have been enjoying the recent sunshine continue to flourish after the weekend weather.

Whether it snows or not, you can still surprise mom with plenty of flowers, potted plants, and more this Sunday, as Merri-Rose Florish and Alcott's Garden Center have been sharing photos to remind us all that they can deliver right to your car.
