Springtime. That's my favorite as well. If it rains, it's like as to be warm rain, which is all right. And I like everything starting over new--and it smells good. Dirt and things. It's brilliant. And then just before summer, before it's switched over properly and gotten hot, and there's flowers everywhere and the grass is really soft--that's brilliant as well.
