These images did their job; they made me look forward to summer. Having something to look forward to puts a skip in my step. I love that seasons change and especially anticipate spring knowing that it holds the beginnings of regrowth and sunshine that will be fulfilled in the next act, summer. The newest summer catalog from Anthro arrived in my mail box with tons of full color, summer finds. I turned its pages while looking out the window at cold, gray skies and constant drizzle. I have the same detached feeling when I get a swimsuit catalog in January, except it is May. Boston played this same trick last year- it is trying to cut out spring. Mid April is beautiful, just to get your hopes up, and then it turns cold and rainy for May. Then June gets hot and humid right away; conditions meant for summer. Just because spring is delicate doesn't mean she should be skipped over. Please, Mother Nature, don't let Old Man Winter bully our little May; spring still has a chance. I love summer but it is best enjoyed after a beautiful spring.

I agree! I need Spring and its wonderful freshness before we head into Summer-we are having the same weather problems this year!
We had snow just a couple days ago! But today it is spring again! Hooray! Love the photos. Oh tank-tops! Trying not to think 'those were the days'...
Amen, sista. We have EARNED spring. It is your right to sunny sandal days after enduring the NE Winter. Especially when, let's face it, sometimes E. Coast summer is brutal, too.
I don't think E. Coasters know what they really have to put up with in terms of weather. Westerners--don't let on.
I'm keeping my fingers double crossed that the absolutely wonderful weather here holds out for you. And Holly!
