April Showers Bring May Flowers
It is the last weekend of April and we are hoping that the April showers are all done and that May flowers will start to flourish! There are many exciting activities happening around the city of Hamilton this weekend from live music to chilling ghost walks.
As always, the weekends are a great time to get outdoors and spend time in nature. Hamilton is known for its many waterfalls and beautiful hiking trail and so we always recommend to check those areas out!
