techinically it's still spring....

Suddenly today summer seems to be in the air. The air outside is clear and warm and there's that feeling of the possibility of summer rain and storms. While I know that technically it's still spring, I often feel that here in the subtropics spring is quickly passed through and the long hot summer begins without warning. It's definitely not my favourite season, but there is something to be said for the sun rising earlier in the mornings and the day beginning with a little more ease than it seems to in the winter. It's beautiful in the late afternoons too, when it's still light but cooling down towards night.
