Warm weather nostalgia
People who have lived in the Pacific Northwest their whole lives are always bewildered as to why I would ever leave the land of perpetual sunshine, not realizing that when sunshine perpetuates, it becomes mundane.
One does not feel the poetic ache of longing for the golden orb of cozy in a place where the rainy season is only three days long. Springy day pop-ups sandwiched between dark days of drizzle that tickle one's senses with warm weather nostalgia just don't happen in the fast paradise of Southern California.
Sure, winters here suck. They are long and cold, full of sloppy wetness and half-melted hazards. But the contrast, the rewards of endurance...
they have yet to disappoint.
Warm weather is coming, Charlie. Any day, now. Any day...

Yes, and I'm hoping that we get start getting some more severe winter weather here with the climate change so I can go ice skating on the duck pond in the winter and not have to move away from Junior and her sweater!
Wait, you traded the land of perpetual sunshine for the land of perpetual drizzle?
It's only perpetual drizzle for 7-8 months a year, but the reward for the endurance is LAVISH. We have the most beautiful springs and summers on the planet right up until it all burns down in the fall.
