When I lived in Alaska I always considered today as the first day of Spring. Now that I live in N. Idaho I still consider it the first day of Spring. WooHoo! C’mon back Sun.
Yes, the irony always get me. Just as the 1st day of summer marks the decline of the sun. Strange.
I don’t mind cold so much, but the short days during winter drive me crazy.
Summer and spring, I can take a short nap in the afternoon, get up and still have four or five hours outside to do stuff.
But when the sun goes down at 4:30, and it’s pitch black by 5, that don’t work!
