Sutton Beckett of Port Angeles mows his front lawn after nice weather last weekend. He got a riding mower because he had knee surgery recently and it also gives him the opportunity to mow his elderly neighbors’ lawn. Sunday was the first meteorological day of spring while March 20 will mark the first official day of the season based on the vernal equinox. (Dave Logan/for Peninsula Daily News)
