Here's how I recognize it:
- Even in the early afternoon, the air has a tint of gold that's only found in sunsets.
- I no longer have to turn my car's a/c to it's highest setting and turn all vents toward me.
- The sky becomes a color of blue that my mother refers to as 'October Blue', or if you're from NC 'Tarheel Blue'.
- Smiles come easier, as weather is harder to complain about.
- The air even seems easier to breathe.
- I begin to LONG for the mountains, a cabin next to a stream and a crackling fire.
- Walking outside is something I want to do.
- Burning leaves.
- High School and College football games--Go MSU Bulldogs!!!!
Watch for the signs. Take a moment. Try to enjoy. And if all you can do is dread the long winter ahead, read this and look forward to your own 'Spring Fever'.
