One of the things that we like about living in the Northeast compared to California (and there aren't that many...) is that you actually get to experience all four seasons rather than just slightly drier or wetter variations of the same weather every day. Autumn is probably my favorite season, but spring is a nice change coming out of the cold, dark winter. Unfortunately, at least in New Jersey, it does feel like spring gets short changed. Real spring only seems to last for a few weeks before we head full on into summer. Usually the seasons is punctuated by heavy rain before the summer heat rolls in.
Although it only lasts for a short while, one of my favorite things about spring is the fog that forms in the morning before the sun has had a chance to warm the air. It makes everything, even the morning commute, feel a little more mysterious and ethereal. It makes you wonder just what's around the corner. Early one morning, I decided to stop at a park on the way to work to just sit quietly in the fog for a while.
