Sunny? Above 35 degrees? Wisconsin? Why, it must be
time to bust out the SHORTS and wash the car!

I just went to get lunch and on my walk I saw at least 3 people running around in shorts and a t-shirt, and all kinds of teenagers skipping school, (and no, Teenagers, I'm not going to go buy you cigars).

Yep. The second it even remotely resembles spring here, everybody jumps right into pretending it's summer.

Oh Wisconsin. You're adorable.

They sing their song for me.

6. People in AZ wear shorts all year.
But what I find funny are the people who are all bundled up when it's 60 degrees! We get so used to hot weather that 6o feels cold.

15. As your Il neighbor
I just got to say it's about time. I am about 35 minutes from your border and the weather has been horrible lately. I can stand to use some more 66 degree days.

16. It is nice, isn't it?
It just makes me laugh every year when the first warm day comes. People lose their minds and act like it's the middle of July all of a sudden. I don't think it's bad. Just amusing--like everybody's giving cabin fever the finger.

Sorry you're in a Toby Keith/fundie audio sandwich, by the way. I hope it ends soon.

17. I know its something about wearring summer clothes too early
I mean with this up and down weather that we've been having is it any wonder why people are walking around with colds?

19. Her in Maine it's been over sixty for two days running. That is
SO unusual! I went for a walk wearing only a t-shirt today, and I think I got a little sunburn. Spring has sprung!

20. Were they skipping school or is it spring break?
And you know the rules - anything above freezing is fair game! ;)

(Someone I know used to say that as soon as the mercury hit 50 degrees, it was time to put away the jeans and break out the shorts.)
