Sassafras Spring

Having obsessively refreshed the weather forecast every day for the last two weeks, I am well-aware that today’s forecast calls for temperatures approaching 60 degrees.  I am giddy at the prospect and over the (cold and windy) weekend, I declared Spring.  Sassafras Spring.  Winter clothes, shoes, scarves, and coats were packed away and replaced by cheerful Spring clothing.

In the event that a blizzard turns up, I can find my snow boots.  But short of that, my pride and sneakers will have to keep me warm.
