Karen and I have always lived in places where there were definite seasons of the year. We had variations in temperature, precipitation, clothing for warmth or to keep cool, shovels and lawn mowers as appropriate. There were occasional glitches, but mostly summer was summer, winter was winter, and so on and so forth........
Two days ago it was 19 degrees when we got up, and today it was in the 50's. Daytime temperatures were in the low 40's and today and for the next week it will be in the high 60's and low 70's. Spring-ter. has sprung. The grass is starting to green up and one of our people was actually on a mower, mowing, and I was finishing up the leaf gathering duties while wearing shorts and a short sleeved shirt. The trees which are to shed their leaves, have done so. I've started growing my beard for the Passion Play and my hair will soon be trimmed, not cut. Anticipating a new season.
There will be no sure things as far as the weather is concerned. We can't change it, we can't order what we want, we can only watch the forecasts, dress appropriately and move from heat, to air conditioning, or a circulating fan, as needed. If we don't like it, I guess we could always move to San Diego with an average low of 57 and an average high of 69. There go the change of seasons and the variations which make life a challenge.
