Spring has Sprung

First a link from my sponsors. https://t-adbar.com/_wozu

Did you see the spring flowers? Did you see the spring flowering trees? Did you see all the beautiful spring colors that come every year? I did.

I always enjoy spring. The temperature is cool but not hot. Summer can be to hot at times. Spring is milder which is more moderate for me. Winter on the other hand can be to cold. You have to put on layers of clothes to stay warm. Spring as I said has a better temperature for me.

Four seasons and four different types of weather. Do all parts of the USA have four seasons? I only live in the Northeast so I can only talk about the Northeast. I hear that the south has warm weather almost twelve months of the year. Is that why people up north travel to Florida to avoid the snow. What do they call these people, Snowbirds? Is that the correct term for avoiding the snow?

As you know I love to travel. Do I take the seasons into consideration when I travel. Well sometimes I do. Sometimes I travel for events like Mardi Gras. Traveling in the spring for Mardi Gras does not work. You will miss the great party. I traveled to Iceland in the winter not the spring. I wanted to experience Iceland and the Northern lights as only winter can show it. Well The Northern lights did not light up for me for the weekend I was in Iceland. I did enjoy the Hot Mineral Springs of Iceland. The mineral springs are best enjoyed in the winter not the spring. A volcano is exploding in Iceland right now. Should I go back to Iceland now in the spring to experience the volcano? that sounds a bit dangerous for me. Think I will watch it on TV instead.

I need to spring into action now. I have bills to pay and trips to plan. The spring flowers are starting to fade but my memories have been revived. Mardi Gras and Iceland are two great trips I enjoyed. Neither of them were in the spring but they still had great weather for traveling.

Stay well. Enjoy spring. Travel often.

Happy trails
