Sometimes I miss living in a place that actually has seasons, you know, like spring and fall. Watching everything change is something I’ve always enjoyed. But now that I’m up north, there’s a saying that our four seasons are “winter, winter, mud and construction.” It’s only partially a joke! Our very long, cold winters are pretty rough.
But it’s all worth it when summer rolls around. Everyone seems happier, despite the increased traffic of tourism and road renovation projects everywhere you turn. People relax on their decks with drinks and have barbeques and backyard fires and visit the many gorgeous beaches and lakes here. There’s an abundance of delicious seafood and canoeing and camping and other fun outdoor options for kids.
