Letter From the Publisher
CELEBRATE
The Motherlode articles are always written about two months before the magazine is published. So, as I’m preparing for this magazine issue on a 34-degree day in February, I realize just how much I love springtime in Annapolis. The winter months can feel long for a community as eventful as ours. For many of us, daylight saving time and the warmth of spring can’t come soon enough! As I read through the article titles for this issue of The Motherlode , I couldn’t stop smiling. Articles about gardening with kids, pickleball in Anne Arundel County, how to get into sailing, and celebrating May Day reminded me just how lucky we are to live in this incredible area. We celebrate so many things—Bands in the Sand, Paca Girlfriends, the St. Patrick’s Day Parade, Pride Parade, and more—during the spring. We love our parades and festivals, and this season will surely increase that sentiment! Perhaps our love for spring is rooted in our love for celebrating and spending time with one another. So here’s to a season of celebration and cherishing everything our community has to offer. Let’s all get out there and do our part to uplift Annapolis and make it better every day!
