Spring Fever

It's spring fever.  That is what the name of it is.  And when you've got it, you want - oh, you don't quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!   ~ Mark Twain

It is beautiful outside and spring fever abounds around me.  Each person I talk to has a little extra energy radiating off them, yet somehow, the atmosphere as a whole is more relaxed.  There's no rush to be anywhere or do anything.  I can't quite put my finger on it.  It's almost as if everyone knows there is something wonderful around the corner and they're all just waiting for the universe to reveal it.

This is so the place that I am in today.  The weather is finally starting to warm up a little and the trees and flowers are starting to bloom.  The anticipation of summer hangs in the air.  Longer days.  Lazy evenings on a back porch with a glass of wine, watching the fireflies dance as the sun goes down.  There are hammocks to be napped in, grills to be fired up, and picnics to be had.  If you listen closely enough, you can almost hear the waves of the beach crashing, beckoning you to visit their sandy shores.  It's almost here.

Can you feel it?
