One of my favourite weeks: the mild weather week in February
February 14 2011, 9:50 PM
It seems like there is always at least one week of mild weather in
February. Most of the weeks will have bitter cold temperatures, but there
will be one week where it almost feels like the start of Spring. I love
this week. It knocks the legs from under winter. Even if winter comes on
strong again, by the time it does, we are almost into March. And no matter
how cold March gets, I know it is the end of winter, not the beginning or
the middle. Winter has lost to spring, with its thaws and mild temperatures
and pleasant sunshine and tree buds and very early flowers. There is much
to distract me in December and even January and such distraction help me
pass through the cold and dark. Come February, though, I look forward to
that one mild week that let's me throw off the burden of winter and let's
me enjoy the lengthening days, the longer evenings and the shorter nights.
And this week is that week, at least in Ontario, Canada. I will enjoy it.
