March has flown by and is almost over, with April beginning this weekend. That of course means April Fools is taking place, but it also means that spring is getting into full gear and that there are more and more events taking place as winter gets further in the rearview mirror. The weather still won't be as warm as most of us would like, but it will be above freezing and that's enough to feel good to get out of the house in Idaho. There are plenty of events to keep you busy this weekend, and here are some you are not going to want to miss.
