Get out your picnic blankets and break out your speakers - it’s time to get to the park.
Congrats everyone, we’ve made it through winter. No more layers and wool socks and obsessive knitting! Begone with expensive heating bills, Twilight books and seasonal depression! The time for freckles is here!
Although the official first day of spring was March 20th, the first real evidence of warm weather I’ve felt was only yesterday when I got a sunburn on one side of my face from sitting in Trinity Bellwoods park with one cheek exposed to a sun-patch.
Sure, the ground is slightly muddy and you might want to watch where you position your park blankets for fear of dirt stains, but there’s no denying it; warm weather is on its way.
So start updating your spring playlists and charge those bluetooth speakers! I expect to see everyone I know hunkered down in the park with Nalgenes filled, shoes off, books open, and music playing for as long as people can make it without getting fired.
Meet you there!
