Spring and Summer are Coming

I can't wait for spring and summer. Who can't, right? But I can't wait for reasons that are quite different from the ones cited most.

There is nothing quite as peaceful as living in a Winnebago during the summer months. In my location, clouds are lower to the ground and thunderstorms are almost a daily occurrence, preceded and followed by sun showers and clear skies.

What that means for me is the sound of raindrops hitting a thin roof, creating an extremely soothing sound that rocks the endorphins and can put you to sleep in minutes.

The other thing it means is windows open all day, every day. In a house, it often takes a bit for the smells of the outdoors to reach the center of the house. Not in a Winnebago. The smell of rain hits like you were standing outside in the rain.

Spring and summer mean no more worrying about heating, snow, ice, and energy bills. Instead, it means warm days, open air, the sound of rain on a thin roof, cool nights, and the thrill of seamless integration with the elements.

Summer is almost here.
