Every year as far back as I can remember we always had a week or two in the middle of winter usually in February where there was at least a week of nice weather. If you look outside it looks warm and then you get the fever.
Spring fever! It's not so much fun to remember that it is still the dead of winter. But not all can be lost. It can be a good time to get out the camping gear and prep it for the coming season. Also we could take a calendar and plan out the spring/summer activities. It's also a good time to set a budget. Good pre planning will make your trip successful and fun, special time.
If you have the false spring going don't let it get you down just use it as a reminder of better things to come. If you live in a part of the world where there is feet of snow or not much sunshine, keep your chin up. It seems to me those in the hardest hit parts of the country that don't have a false spring often have a early spring.
Right now out here in the west we are having a false spring. It has been sunny here for a long time. Weeks it seems. We will pay for it one way or another. Either we will remain dry and have an early and bad fire season or we will have a wet summer.
So no matter where in the world you are try not to take for granted your life or your loved ones. Don't let the weather get you down. There is always hope and better weather just around the corner.
Keep an eye out for the coming posts. As I promised I will restart the fire season in review and also the wildfire diaries. Keep checking back and let me know what else you would like to see. Until next time......
