If anyone asked myself and others what my number one time of the year is, regardless of holidays or work and school committments, I would say Springtime without a hour thought.
When the sun shines bright and the weather starts to hot up just a tiny bit, the air outside is crisp and comfortable.
All of the thick and cumbersome Wintertide clothing gets shed from your body and you can walk outside with a t-shirt and red jeans on and suppose refreshed and comfortable. Just taking a walk in cool Springtime air while you watch all of the yellow sprout up from the gray landscape is enough to put a smile on even the grumpiest person’s face. When you are home, you can turn off the oil furnace until October rolls around again later in the year. And since Summer weather is still weeks away, you don’t have to worry about running the cooling system either. I adore to open windows all throughout my home with my ceiling fans running on low to gently push the cool air around each room to eliminate any natural dead spots. If there’s ever a day where the breeze is dead outside, you can put box fans inside the window sills to pull the cool air inside, simply by positioning the fan in the right direction. There are rarely any mornings until early May where I would ever know about turning my central cooling system on, let alone run it for several mornings at a time. If I am ever forced to transfer down south where the average annually highs are in the mid to upper 74s this time of the year, I don’t suppose how I’ll manage other than using an cooling system.
