First Signs Of Spring: Massachusetts Residents Take Advantage Of Spring-Like Weather

BOSTON (CBS) - It's not warm enough yet to dive in, but Salisbury Beach was still a popular place to be on Thursday's spring-like day.

"We came down and we played with some dinosaurs and made a castle and we ate beach pizza, that was a treat, tested the water," said Janet Cugini of Salisbury.

People were outside Thursday and found enjoyment doing things they haven't done in months like eat some fresh seafood. The line at the Clam Box in Ipswich stretched down the street.

"I got a clam plate. It comes with French fries and onion rings and was delicious," said Robin Titcomb of Amesbury.

Kathleen Claypool made a special trip to this nursery to find some flowers. "The plan is they are going on my porch for the next few weeks. They'll be happy," said Claypool.

People were teeing up every few minutes at Cape Ann Golf Club in Essex. "Coming here today I can't be happier after all the bad news we've had," said Ed Dattoli of Danvers.

The course is booked for days with this nice stretch of weather.
