...California

The weather has been AWESOME here the last few days. The mornings have been crisp and cool, the evenings chilly and the afternoons cloudy! I love it! We even got rain over the weekend. It really feels like Fall here in So. Cal and that is a great thing. See, my favorite seasons in this part of the country are Fall and Spring. There is nothing like the freshness of Spring and the cool of Fall. Sure, I like Summer and Winter enough, but for my taste, Summer is too hot and Winter is not cold enough. I like to be able to go outside in the Summer without dying of heat stroke and I like to go out in the Winter knowing that hypothermia could be just a few hours away. Of course, I only like it that cold if the pay-off is snow. Call me crazy. I guess it comes from my Northwestern upbringing. There's nothing like a Washington afternoon just after a storm when the sky is still charcoal gray and the sun peaks through the clouds onto the hills and lights up the turned trees.
