Summer has always been my favorite season when it comes to the weather in the northeast. I would always prefer peeling layers of clothing off to cool down instead of covering up with more and heavier coats to warm up. People used to warn me that the hotter it gets, after a point there’s no clothing left to remove and you’re still hot. Whereas, if it gets colder there is no limit to the amount of clothing you can add to regulate your level of comfort.
I still would rather wear less clothing—or none, in some circumstances—but I think I have a new appreciation of the autumn. When it’s not cold, the weather is “nice.” And I like “nice.” I like the sound of the wind blowing leaves around, either on the trees or on the ground. You don’t hear that in the spring or summer (winter is right out). So maybe, just maybe, someone was right.
I guess I should appreciate the fall while I can; if I end up moving to a warmer location (still a shot in the dark), I’ll lose the change of seasons.
Told ya so. 🙂
It’s warm in Dallas.
