transitions

Last spring, we experienced a spring in the Wilamette valley of Oregon in mid March, then traveled through northern California with more spring, only to be hit with winter coming out of Colorado. After one day of winter in Illinois on our return home, we got to experience another spring. I should interject that our favorite times of the year are spring (for me) and fall (for Georgia). Could it be because I was born in March and she in September??? After a short summer, we experienced fall in Illinois and Indiana during September and October, then on October 31, we headed to Tennessee. We got to experience a beautiful fall again in Kentucky and Tennessee. This was all great and fitting with our year of 2 springs and 2 falls. However, now that we're back in the midwest, it is winter. We got to experience our first snow of the winter driving to Gas City Thursday evening. In case you didn't know... Winter is here. We feel like we left for Tennessee in the fall and returned in the Winter. I have notice that my body has not had time to equilabrate, but I do have my trusty Ridge Rider vest from Laramie to keep me warm. Oh well, we'll make the transition again; and be wishing for snow at Christmas.

I've always believed that your favorite seasons coincide with your birthday season...seems to have proven true in my "research".

I must say eating dinner on the riverwalk in San Antonio last Saturday evening was nice, but I really am looking forward to the cold and snowy winter--I just hope I get my leaves up and my garage cleaned out first.
