Seasons Greetings

I love Spring! It's my favorite season every year. The newness of the growing things, makes me so happy. The smells, oh, you can't bottle the smells. So sweet and fresh, especially after a long winter and closed windows.

I love Summer! After Spring, Summer is the best. Warm temps, open windows day and night! I can wear no shoes! I love my shorts! The critters are making music outside, from birds to crickets, it's awesome! The flowers are blooming, each in their place and time. And the smells!  And our reenacting season begins again!

I love Autumn!  I usually don't really welcome Fall, it's the end of my glorious Summer and cold. No more shorts, or flip flops. Reenacting season closes, camping is done for the next several months. But you can't beat the season of change, and the colors that go with it. It's gorgeous, and stunning, depending where you are. And the smells!!  The wood stoves are fired up again, and the ground has a different scent than it does in the Summer or Spring. Mmmm.

I love Winter! Well, maybe not love it, but I don't mind it, too much. It's cold, it's wet, it's slippery. It can be dreary and depressing. But it can also be bright, white and blinding. It can be refreshing, and crisp. Ok, Winter isn't so bad, it's just COLD!
