“The debut of Paducah’s spring surprised the community every year. Locals had seen everything from frozen landscapes to sultry storms. This year crocuses and daffodils popped up like excited guests who couldn’t wait for the party to start. Fuchsia and white azaleas blended with pink and milkywhite dogwood blooms. Forsythia and pale green wraps of leaves danced with memory and grace. Tender fescue resurrected the yards. Cherry blossoms flowed and dripped like waterfalls.”
