No matter the temperature outside, the first days of April always feel like spring has truly arrived. Perhaps it's the increase in daylight hours, or the re-opening of oh-so-many offices, or even the bunnies shedding their winter white fur — but we're feeling fairly twitterpated this week, and looking ahead to the springtime-y activities that are starting up again.
The APN bees have been busy making podcasts, too, so we've got the week's playlist queued up just in time for your weekend exploits. You may even need to bust out the sunscreen. Enjoy!
Heads up: We're taking next Friday off for an Easter egg hunt and pysanky decorating party. We'll be back with the latest episodes and news on Calgary Expo the following week (keep an eye on the Expo schedule; some familiar APN faces will be recording episodes live from the floor at Stampede Park between April 21 and 24).
