I walk around obnoxiously saying that I really prefer summer and fall and maybe even the first few days of winter, but spring? not so much.And then spring comes around and the air tastes like flowers and dirt and rain and I don’t have to wear a jacket and we can keep the windows open at night and I remember that, yes indeed!
