I think May is my favorite month in the spring. You can pretty much rely on having mild temps and sunny days. Of course, I do live in the Chicagoland area, so weather wise, nothing is ever for certain 🙂 I love getting to see everything come back to life after a long, cold winter.
• Lilacs ~ so many varieties, colors and glorious scents
• Seeing the brave little Hyacinths, Tulips and Daffodils breaking through the ground
• Seeing and hearing all the robins everywhere
• Having more daylight hours
• The smell of fresh cut grass (sorry allergy sufferers)
• Starting my organic vegetable garden
• Getting to wear sandals
• Being able to have the windows open for fresh air
• Cooking and eating outside
• Going for long walks in the forest preserves or on the IL prairie paths
These are some of my favorite things in the spring. It is usually a short-lived season in the Chicagoland area. We tend to move into hot and humid summer weather fairly quickly … but I do love the few blissful weeks in May with its mild weather and promise of new life 🙂
