TO OUR READERS

April is here! Has spring sprung? It did a little bit in March as we hit some record highs the week of March 8. The 50-degree temps were just what we all needed after getting out of that horrible cold snap we had in February. Of course, it was followed by a one-day snowstorm … that’s the Northland weather for us.

Now that we are looking into April, this is the month where so much happens. The snow melts, the grass and trees start to turn green and we look at our properties and think about projects, gardening and perhaps personal goals for the upcoming summer. Did you know the hit color is yellow this year? I would say that’s a great trend for this year — nothing is cheerier than yellow, in my opinion. I think after the year we had, we could use more cheer!

In this issue, we have a great variety of content to enjoy, which in turn may inspire you to make new goals or plan new projects this upcoming season. Additionally, three women shared their stories and reflection of the one-year anniversary when Minnesota was placed on pandemic lockdown.

Another four amazing women are forging ahead, making sure that our communities receive important news every day. Those amazing women are our Northland evening television anchors. We then took a ride with Abigail Boone at Kivi Trucking to learn all about her love for trucking.

April is a busy month, and we hope you are able to take some time to sit down and enjoy this month’s issue. Thank you for picking up The Woman Today, our team and advertisers appreciate all the support! See you next month.
