You might have heard or if you live in the northeastern portion of the US have witnessed the utter lack of summer-like weather. The news has stated that we are at least 10 degrees colder than last summer on average. Today and yesterday saw highs in the 60's. Now as a New Englander I am used to bad weather. We pride ourselves in being able to handle many drifts of snow with ease. Our schools don't need to close, we'll be plowed and snow-blowed out before the first bell! But we rely on a few things to help us through those difficult winters, one of those things being alcohol and the other is summer. When it starts to get warm most of us have sun burns because we are so unaccustomed to the sun. But we don't care, we need it. We need the light and warmth so we can deal with the darkness that seems to happen earlier and earlier in Fall.
When Summer hits we go full throttle, barbqueing every night, going to the beach every weekend, filling up on all those summer experiences. Typically by the end of August you get tired of tasting barbque sauce and look forward to something baked in the oven. So what are we to do when Spring seems to have happened in June and July? You know that Fall will still happen on time if not early. I'm hoping at least August will have enough hot weather that I'm willing to return to Winter otherwise I might just have to move to somewhere else. Anyone interested in a 2 story colonial?
